Book Cover Maker

Design a front cover and spine, then download a print-resolution PNG — 6 × 9 in alone exports at 1800 × 2700 px. Everything renders in your browser; your file is never uploaded.

Trim size

Authored at 576 × 864 units; exporting at 300 dpi gives 3781 × 2700 px.

System fonts only — that way the exported PNG matches the preview exactly.

Spine

240 pages → 0.600 in spine, drawn 58 units wide in this trim size. Even 240 pages is required for print (odd page counts need a blank).

Export

Output: 3781 × 2700 px (back + spine + front, flat wrap). Rasterising is capped at 38 megapixels so the tab cannot run out of memory.

The preview and the download are the same SVG, so type wraps identically. Uploaded artwork is embedded as a data URL before it enters the canvas — that is what keeps the exported PNG untainted.

Optional: upload artwork to turn this into a photo cover. Placement, fade, blend and scrim controls appear with it.

About this tool

Book Cover Maker designs a front cover, spine and back panel in real trim proportions — 6 × 9 in, 5 × 8 in, 5.5 × 8.5 in or a 1600 × 2560 e-book canvas — and exports the whole wrap as a print-ready PNG at up to 400 dpi. It runs entirely in the browser: your typing and any uploaded artwork stay on your device, and nothing is sent to a server.

Spine width is calculated from your page count and paper stock, and export size follows the trim you pick — 6 × 9 in alone becomes 1800 × 2700 px at 300 dpi. Rasterising is capped at 38 megapixels so a large canvas cannot exhaust memory, and the tab tells you when that ceiling trims the resolution. Type is set in system fonts, so the PNG matches the preview exactly.

A spine width from a page count plus paper stock is an estimate — always confirm the final figure with your printer before submitting files, and remember that print shops expect CMYK with a bleed, which this PNG designer does not produce.
