Paper size

[rblade]

I'm going to make an album with a cover size 11.25 x 8.75. I need to know what is the paper size of this album?

I will be using Photoshop Elements for all my composition and just place each page into my publishers pages for printing.

Thanks in Advance

Hi Rblade -
The page size is 11 x 8.5, however you should add a millimeter around all sides to account for bleed and cropping. Nothing important should be put into the gutter as well as you can use 1/4 of an inch there.

Sincerely,
MyPublisher

Do you see any problems with this? In photoelements, I will make my page 11 x 8.5 with a background picture that size. Then I will add my pictures to this background page with a 1/8 or 1/4 in border. I will save this total layout as a jpg file and drop it on to a my publishers page.

It sounds like that should work.
