What is a handbook?

A book is usually an 8.5 x 11 soft cover perfect bound multi-page project with a higher page count, unlike booklets, which are usually 5.5 x 8.5 self-cover saddle stitch multi-page projects with a lower page count. Books can also be spiral, wire-o, or saddle stitch.

How to make a book cover?

Create the design of your perfect-bound spine at the dimensions provided in the spine calculator. You will save this spine separately from your print-ready PDF. If you have any questions or concerns about your cover or spine, please feel free to leave a note at checkout, and your technical service rep will address your concerns.
