Cover template generator
Draws the full wrap at its true size with trim, bleed, spine and safe area marked, and downloads it as a scalable file your designer can open.
The book
Spine width comes from page count times paper thickness, which is why the template cannot
be drawn until the interior is laid out. Hardcover adds board thickness and a hinge allowance.
The wrap
Downloads as a scalable vector file at exactly the finished size. It opens in Illustrator,
Affinity Designer, Inkscape and Photoshop. Place your artwork underneath the guide layer, then delete
the guides before you export.
