To have your photobook made, you need to supply us with pre-prepared and graphically correct materials. You have several options to prepare of your photobook. You can either use your own software, such as Adobe Photoshop, In Design etc. In this case it is important to follow the exact double page /spread/ proportions, in dependence with the resulting format of the photobook. For instance, with a book 30x30 cm you need to get us a file size 30.5 x 61cm, which equals one double page /spread/, hence, if the book has 30 pages, we will need 15 files, i.e. double pages /spreads/. Click here for the exact sizes of the double pages.
