Cover Studio

Not an art tool — a math & assembly tool. Bring your art; we compute the spine, build the exact full-wrap canvas, and export a print-ready PDF.

KDP setup

Drop-in art

Front cover art
Back cover art (optional)

Front cover title

Rendered as crisp text by the app on a scrim banner in the upper third — never baked into the AI art (image models misspell). Leave blank to ship art-only.

Back cover copy

Spine & barcode

AI prompt assistant

Copy-paste into Gemini / Ideogram. Sized to the exact pixels you need at 300 DPI.

Front cover only
Design a print-ready book cover, portrait orientation, 49:74 aspect ratio.
Render at exactly 1838 x 2775 px (300 DPI, full-bleed — art runs to all edges).
Subject and style: [describe your niche here].
CRITICAL LAYOUT: keep the TOP THIRD of the cover a calm, low-detail zone (even tone, no busy focal points) so the title and author can be overlaid on it legibly. The app renders the title text itself — do NOT render any text, letters, words, or logos in the image.
Use high-contrast, print-friendly colors that hold up in CMYK. No watermarks, no borders.
Full wrap (back + spine + front)
Design a print-ready full-wrap paperback cover (back cover, spine, and front cover as one continuous image), landscape orientation, 1252:925 aspect ratio.
Render at exactly 3756 x 2775 px (300 DPI, full-bleed).
Subject and style: [describe your niche here].
COMPOSITION: the front cover is the RIGHT third; the back cover is the LEFT third; the spine is a thin vertical strip about 50% across. Keep the spine strip simple (solid or subtle texture). Keep the lower-right of the back cover clear for a barcode.
CRITICAL: keep the TOP THIRD of the FRONT (right) panel a calm, low-detail zone for the title and author overlay. The app renders the title text itself — do NOT render any text, letters, words, or logos.
High-contrast, CMYK-safe colors. No watermarks, no borders.
