Construct Cover
After you upload the ebook to www.lulu.com
you could just choose the Front Cover they supply, otherwise you can develop your own.
To produce your own you should use Gimp Image Creator/Manipulator or equivalent.
Open up The Gimp.
Construct a new image and make the dimensions 1838x2775mm for any novel measurement ebook. You’ll need to unlink the Image Measurement, Width and Height Website link.
Now you could add Text and maybe a Graphic or Photo. We have been engaging in the first get the job done in Open up Workplace Draw, then exporting for a jpg graphic and resizing and finishing inside the Gimp.
You should have this graphic readily available as well as appropriate measurement in the event you upload the ebook.
Construct PDF or DOC

We have found a PDF will give you the easiest and most desirable results when uploading your E-book.
You need to use a Phrase (DOC) Format, but PDF is best.
In Open up Workplace Click on on Construct PDF Button on Toolbar.
Help you save the PDF file then open up mytruedesign.com it and test the end result for web page breaks and layout and so forth.
We have integrated links to web based file conversion internet sites in lesson fifteen and there are lots of Windows packages for converting to a PDF file.
Should you have difficulties building a PDF file, specially if it complains about embedding fonts, go again to your document and make sure you simply possess the New Periods Roman font. Then consider again. This is the only concern I had in building a PDF file.
Whenever your as a final point document is ready, test site it for the layout and go again and make any corrections required.
Upload to Online

Lulu is what they simply call Print On Demand. In other words if you will find there’s demand they print a duplicate. So there isn’t any price tag except you order or sell some copies.
You can find other web sites that do equivalent important things, but Lulu works for me.
Just check out www.lulu.com and indicator up for a member. Login and then check out My Lulu and Publish a E-book. It is issue of adhering to the instructions, upload the E-book and bobs your aunty!
(Craig’s remark: Not so straightforward because it sounds for “total non-techno”, like me, so I depart to Bill’s skills and let him do it- significantly significantly simpler and easier and a lot less disappointment…Grrrr!)
