  • How do you format the pages and cover online?

  • @RandomAphFails You create the cover with Word or other wordprocessor: just print it on 11x14 stock. You create the pages as a PDF files just as you would to put them on a thumb drive. Online is optional for getting the format of the pages and cover.

    Or are you asking a different question?

  • Jim your video is amazing, thanks so much. I'm not too technically savvy, so how do you set up the pages for printing the two books at once? is it PDF? word? I notice one book is forward and the other is backward on the landscape layout. I don't get that part. Thanks for your time.

  • @MagsForbes OMG! The new You Tube interface/account system is AWFUL!! It took me 20 minutes to be able to reply. Google is really pissing me off.

    Thanks for letting me vent. Whew. I'm better now.

    This commenting system is no good to answer your question. jahbini At jahbini fullstop org put PDF General in subject line. Thanks

see all

  • AMAZING Video you just gave me an idea how to bookbind my ebook! Thanks a Million!

  • Let me be clearer.. you use 11x14.. do you know what I should use for an 6x9 cover..thanks

  • Hi Jim. That's a terrific video. First question is, my books usually are 6x9 novels- can you help me with the measurements in which the cover should be? Second question, what's those two instruments you used on the spine to put a dent into it. Sorry third question, what program did you use to design your book cover. Again thanks so much. Wishing you luck in your sales also

  • This is awesome. Thank you for sharing!!!

  • Very helpful...thank you so much!

  • The best site I've found to get thermal binding covers and machines is thermobinding (dot) com They have the best prices I've found online and also really good customer service. I highly recommend them...
