Re: DUST JACKETS 100% DONE
The artist who worked on this will be unavailable for several weeks, and I don't trust myself to mess with his files without knowing what works and what doesn't. If someone wants to experiment I encourage it, in the meantime you can try downloading the png/jpgs and resizing them on your PC before shipping them to your printer.

Re: DUST JACKETS 100% DONE
Well, what are the dimensions of each of the books?

Re: DUST JACKETS 100% DONE
Off the top of my head, they should be 9 inches tall. I'll provide accurate measurements once I get back home

Each book is 9 1/4 inches tall and 6 1/4 inches wide
9.25 in = 23.5 cm
6.25 in = 15.9 cm
I'm starting to think that the book size info should be added to the FAQ. Probably... Maybe... Perhaps... Possibly?

Re: DUST JACKETS 100% DONE
I checked, and the dust jackets are already pretty much the sizes they need to be! Wooo!

Yeah, thats my only issue with these jackets. Steelhooves kinda looks like a demented anteater. If one could just trim that muzzle thing back a bit...
I don't mind the typos even ("Matrixes" and others...) Kinda goes along with Kkat's insistence on not editing the typos in the story itself.

Yeah Steelhooves is off, and I dont particularly care for this version of him.

Re: DUST JACKETS 100% DONE
Illustrator loads the PDFs (haven't checked either of the other two formats, but I assume they're the same dimensions) as 10"x~20-21" which seems big all around, but I haven't seen the books firsthand or had jackets made before to have a clue what this needs to be for sure, though I expect you'd want it just slightly too long for bends, but 3/4" seems a bit much on the top/bottom of it. Anybody know for sure that they got it printed with no scaling whatsoever? If so, how's it fit?

Re: DUST JACKETS 100% DONE
Scaled down to 9.25" (The exact height of the book) the spines surprisingly fit perfectly. The front and back covers images don't—they're off by a quarter of an inch at the far edges for both of them—and as a result the dust jacket flaps don't roll properly around the sides of covers, leaving the text wrapping around it.
