				Whats the best way to write the synopsis for the back cover?
 
Have just tried in PS,but it just writes in 1 continuous line............is there a better way?
 
Thanks.

				     you need to hit the return key now and then   
 
 
OK ............... go copy your text synopsis from somewhere like imdb.
 
Then select your text tool...................and drag out a box with it across the back of your cover. Then just paste your text into that box..............bingo   
 
 
Make sure the text size you select is between 8 - 10. 
 
 
You can use the "paragraph" tool box to justify your text in a number of ways also. You just need to experiment with it a little bit.
 
 
Don't forget to "highlight" your text to allow you to make changes to it.   |

				Hmmm......the template i'm using seems to be on top of a transparent canvas,which is larger than the cover image.How can i crop this transparent canvas off,so i'm just left with the right cover size.I want to do a test print of what i've done so far.......... _________________ Reduce your carbon footprint...wear smaller shoes!!

use image size option tab, and resize the transparent canvas to size you need.... _________________ I USED TO BE INDECISIVE, BUT NOW I,M NOT TO SURE.... |
