  1. Download our Custom Cover Builder. This is a Photoshop plugin for versions of Photoshop CS2 and above.
  2. Drag the script into your Photoshop workspace and select the album size and page count from the dropdown menu (please disregard the 8×12). The script will create a correctly sized template including layers showing you where the wraparound area, spine and “pinch” will be.
  3. Layout your cover on the template, discard the extra layers and save your cover as an sRGB JPEG file ready for uploading with your pages.
