Frequently asked questions

What size is a 5.06 x 7.81 IngramSpark paperback cover?

It depends on page count. A 5.06 x 7.81 in IngramSpark paperback with 200 pages on white paper needs a full cover of 10.794 × 8.060 in (3239 × 2418 px at 300 DPI). The height is always 8.060 in.

How much bleed does an IngramSpark 5.06 x 7.81 cover need?

0.125 in on every outside edge. Keep text at least 0.125 in inside the trim line.

Can I put text on the spine?

IngramSpark allows spine text from 48 pages. Leave some space between the text and each spine edge, because the fold can shift slightly in production.
