When designing the layout of a book with a dust cover, there is provision to add content for the front cover only. Could somebody please advise what I can expect on the back cover (dust jacket).

Also, should I expect any form of advertising/branding by mypublisher anywhere on the finished product?

Thanks

The back of our new Book Jackets are printed in a solid color with no text, images or branding. Each cover page layout has a coordinating default color printed on the back. For instance, if the text box on the front cover is black, the back will be solid, black; if white, the back will be solid white. Each of our Themed Cover Designs have a color printed on the back that coordinates with the cover design. Visit our Help section on Themed Cover Designs to see what the default color is for each design (http://www.mypublisher.com/help20/help_chapter4.php#d2b).

I hate to tell you this, but you are not making improvements. You are adding more restrictions. If there is no way around this, you just lost a TON of customers. I created two amazing albums recently and this was not the case. I have been working on a new album of which I was ordering FIVE and I am about to vomit. I can not explain to this customer that they will not be like my sample. I have to find a new vendor which will NOT be hard to do. Why would you do this? Are you off your rocker?

Hi Christifreeman -

I'm really sorry but I don't understand what you need. We have not changed anything regarding the book jackets and designs in close to 6 months, and definitely never imposed any new restrictions. Can you tell me a bit more about what is not working for you? I'd really like to try to help.

Sincerely,
MyPublisher
