Custom Cookbook Design Tips

Helpful custom cookbook design tips and guidelines when publishing your cookbook.

[wpseo_breadcrumb]
Press-ready pages are ones that you design and submit fully finished and ready to print. Additional charges could apply for press-ready artwork that requires work by Cookbook Publishers. See below for tips and guides to make press-ready pages.

Bleeds

The trim size of your cookbook is 5.5” x 8.5”. Any text on your cover must be within the 4.5” x 7.5” image area. If your design is to bleed off the page, it must extend at least 1/8” beyond the trim edge.

Photographs

You may submit original photographs or provide tiff or eps files saved at 300 dpi resolution. Please do not submit newspaper or magazine photos, low-resolution digital files, or photographs printed on your home or office printer, as the low quality would produce inferior results.
