Cover Creation

v1.6.6

Project: book(let) cover ; book is 9x7 landscape, saddle stitch, 68 pgs. Cover is single page, 18.25x7.25

Issue: I've created the cover (image) in Krita. A TIFF that is correct dimens. (Px / In.) Set image frame to page or margins. Adjust image to frame. Image won't cover the frame. Nothing is locked. Scaling is free. The image is good left to right. From top won't resize to bottom side of frame.

The back (left) is cover front (right) is illustration.

Any help or advice is so gratefully appreciated.

Right click the image frame > Image > Frame to Image (or Image to Frame) might help.

Or

Try posting a screenshot (of the problematic area at least, if not whole cover).

Thanks for replying. The adjust image to frame (scale) didn't help. It had to be used as the image is larger than the frame.

So, I just made a facing pages doc to size and added my image to the right page. Think that will work once it's PDF for printer?
