"How to use Convert Book"

Our product lineup includes many different styles of books. Because of that, converting a book once already in the design process requires a few manual steps.

Getting Ready:
1. Please prepare a set of new blank templates using ABPs for target book that you wish to convert to.
2. Please remove unnecessary spreads on the copy of the original document manually in case you wish to remove pages. You can do this by making a copy of Pages..psd and remove unnecessary spreads.
	
Notes:
1. If you wish to increase the number of pages during the designing process, extra blank spreads will be inserted before last single page.
2. Due to quality restrictions, our tool protects against sizing files up.
3. If the Working Color Space RGB are not consistent, the process will be discarded.
4. Converting between inside pages and outer pages (case, cover) is not available at this time.
However, converting between Case and Cover is available.
5. Inside the script, it takes a copy of source document and processes accordingly. The referred document would not be changed.
6. It is not possible to convert books of different orientations. Our tool doesn't allow you to convert a vertical layout to a horizontal layout. You will need to redesign the layouts if that is your goal.
7. For inside pages the document width is used for calculating the resize rate. For outer pages (cover and case), the document height is used for calculating resize rate. The Cover and Case spine width may change depends on the number of sides. Please confirm your cover/case design after removing or adding pages.
8. Please repeat converting process for each of book elements. For example, if the targeted book has 3 elements (cover, case, and inside pages), then please use this feature three times to complete the conversion of the whole book package.
9. Always be sure to double check your layouts for any image shifting during conversion. We recommend bringing your images to the edge of the canvas to ensure a full bleed or keeping images inside of the guidelines by at least 1/4 inch if you prefer to keep some space between the images and the edge of the printed page.
10. Some products may not be applicable to convert. (Such as Photo mount etc)
