hi john, adam,<BR>
<BR>
i am chewing through the same issue right now... yes ... and then document it in the howto flossmanuals flossmanual :) <BR>
<BR>
i guess there would be two ways of adding custom covers to flossmanuals.<BR>
<BR>
1. PDF on FM: the first way would actually be using the flossmanuals platform as it is - adding a manual is like creating a site and then "on publish" you can select the site in a pulldown.<BR>
<BR>
2. PDF for POD e.g. Lulu: i assume (haven't checked) that there are other requirements. firstly: the cover can (and should) be of higher resolution if it carries images (on the web PDF creation they are all 72dpi). secondly, on Lulu you need to design the spine as well - something that doesn't come up in the PDF. so for lulu i assume they must have their own howto and that would require to remove the existing FM cover in the PDF and then either replace it or upload a second file with just the cover.<BR>
<BR>
if anybody has experience on this, i would be happy to hear about it and as happy to write up the howto.<BR>
<BR>
thanks, micz <BR>

Hi Adam,
Not long before you went to the civicrm sprint James Simmons asked about
creating a book cover for "Reading and Sugar" for use on Lulu.com.
I think you said you would show me how to set that up once you came back
from the sprint.
I'm just wondering if you are now able to show me what to do?
Cheers,
John
