Having a problem trying to share a book. I click on the 'share' button located on the bottom of my book page. It makes me log in (accepts it), uploads and asks for e-mails to share with. It gives me a 'share completed' page. However, the e-mail notifying of the 'shared book' is never received. Can not figure out what I might be doing wrong when everything says it is completed successfully. Help...

For some reason MyPublisher has blocked my ability to send a reply to your personal message. I hope you get this ok. This is what I said in my attempted reply:
Your book so far is very good. I love the way you have set up your pages. Are you using Photoshop or Elements? As long as you allow 1/2" all around your page for binding and cut off in processing, your book should print fine.
What measurements and dpi did you use? The reason I say 1/2"all around is that you never know for sure how the page will be cropped in the printing and processing of your book. I used to depend on the preview function to see if my pages would fit well but...I learned the hard way that the preview does not accurately represent the way your book will print and the way the picture will sit on the page. If you allow enough for the trimming of your book, all pages will look great.
It appears that you did allow quite a bit and the only pages that you might look at are your full bleed ones to make sure nothing you want to save is in that 1/2" border around the picture. In one of my books, I had a "Rainbow Over Cape Horn"...but Cape Horn got cut off. All I had left was the rainbow.
Keep going and when you finish, let me know and I will look at your book before you send it to print.

Cruiser,
I am still learning this site and resent you my original question. Right after I sent it I found this post. Obviously ignore my resent post!
I am using Elements 6.0. I have set the DPI to 220 with the size of 5x7. This is a 5x7 paperback book. Am I on the right track?
I was most concerned about the full bleed with the recessed frame. I do see one page that I might lose too much if I go with full bleed - maybe I will incorporate some of the pages as 1 photo page with caption in MP format. I guess maybe I will just have this one printed and see how it turns out. It is the paperback 5 x 7 so I don't mind having to order a second time if it doesn't work out. I will take you up on your offer to look at it prior to sending for printing.
Again, thanks for your help.
Ann
