Hello there, hope you're still around. I am having trouble trying to make my font larger and the space between the sentences wider. I have done the toggle and slid it all the way the top to increase font and spaces but when ordered my books via Amazon the font still came back very tiny. This is not good because it's for a middle grade fiction book. Not recommended for kids. It looks intimidating and even I dont like the small size, can you please help?

This is a newbie question but did you make the rose image in canva? or was did you purchase it somewhere?

Hi! Do you offer book formatting/ design services? I am very interested in booking a formatter for a December release.

The video is a year old, but I hope you might see my question. I used your instructions to create a two-page spread, but in my case, the artwork is full bleed on all sides. I'm running into an issue with the spacer images used to push down the chapter text. I did the spacer as you said, leaving it white, putting a word on it also in white, making it completely transparent, and downloading with no background. When I add the actual chapter header graphic, the spacer image in the background still shows through like an artifact. I've tried making the header image both with and without background. I've updated the visibility within Vellum to 100%. I don't know what else I might be able to do to keep those spacer artifacts from showing through. The header image is monotone and I used the magic eraser tool to soften some of the image where the chapter text is to make it easier to read. Do you have any suggestions?

My print is 5.25x8, and my bleed has a sliver where the picture didn't reach the edge of the page. Do you know what the dimensions would be for my size of book?

[AsashaVives]

do you add the those empty boxes as anything specific? photo? freestanding?
