Create a cover

What is an editable book cover template?It is a starting point you can make your own. Change the artwork, title, author name, type, crop, color, spine, and back-cover copy instead of editing a flattened image.

Choose for the reader, not the decoration

Start with the genre and feeling readers should recognize. Add your real title, replace the sample image, and check whether the main idea still reads at thumbnail size.

Use the same design for ebook and print

The ebook uses the front. For print, Coverfairy adds the back and calculates the spine from the final trim, paper, binding, and page count. Verify the exported PDF against the printer's current template before uploading.
