FAQs
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.

To make a book cover, you can place your desired images and content onto your front and back cover. These pages need to be separate, not spread. 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.

Resolution
PrintingCenterUSA recommends that the resolution of your images and document be 300 dpi or more.
Bleeds
Bleed is an extra 1/8” of image that extends beyond the trim area of your printed piece. The project is printed on an oversized sheet that is cut down to size with the appearance that the image is “bleeding” off the edge of the paper.
