Cover Dimension Calculations

Useful tools to help create .pdf covers

To help you create covers for our various binding types, please download our Microsoft Excel cover calculator below. This will give you cover dimensions.  The diagrams for each cover type below can also help with understanding how the cover elements relate to each other.

For more in-depth information, please refer to BNB’s File Submission Guidelines.

*BNB will only accept print-ready pdf files with all fonts/images embedded. Any cover not adhering to these standards will be subject to a prepress file-handling fee and/or order cancellation.*

*Please do not include printer's marks or extra canvas around the cover.*
