If you require a school logo on the cover, please supply a high resolution copy. Ensure that the logo is in JPEG, AI, PNG or EPS format. Logos should NOT look like this:

Photographs
If you are supplying photographs, please ensure you have permission to use them in your design and that they are at least 300dpi at the size required for print. https://pixabay.com/en is a great resource for finding royalty-free photographs. You can also choose from our library of sample photographs which is available on request.
Inside Cover Design Options
Bespoke information can go on the inside front/back covers (or inside the books). You can mock up your own pages (e.g. in MS Word) and we will design them for you. Alternatively, you can use your choice of software to create print-ready page designs. Please note: extra charges apply for bespoke information pages.
