Description: |
REQUIREMENTS:
This project is to take a book cover for a hardback book, which we have in PDF format (see attached) and to recreate that book cover in a smaller format that can be used for a paperback version of the same book. (See "Dimensions" below for the size requirements of the cover.) You must be a skilled graphic designer with experience in books/publishing. We need this book cover recreated in "press quality" PDF format. NOTE: We will provide you with the PDF of the hard cover (see attached file to this posting). I almost certain the attached PDF it is in "press quality" format, but as I am not a graphics expert, I am not 100% certain the attached PDF is "press quality." Your work must be "press quality." The new cover that you create must look as similar as possible to the attached PDF.
Although we have a PDF of the original cover, we do NOT have any of the underlying original graphics file that were used to create the PDF (with the exception of the main image of George Washington).
The attached PDF was used for the hardcover edition of the book. The new file that you create will be used for a paperback edition of the book. While the graphics on the front of the cover will need to look identical to those from the original PDF, the dimensions of the layout will change in accordance with the printer's requirements (see "Dimensions" below). In addition, the inside flaps from the hardcover can be deleted and the text on the back of the book will change.
The hardback cover is attached to this project in what I believe is a "press quality" PDF.
DIMENSIONS:
The printer has requirements on the dimensions of the book cover you create. They are described in detail here:
http://www.bookmasters.com/print/eplayout.htm
http://www.bookmasters.com/print/pdf/PerfectBound.pdf
GRAPHICS AND TEXT:
To assist you with this project, we will provide you with:
1. The PDF of the hard cover.
2. The JPG of George Washington.
3. The ISBN number and price of the book for the back cover. (See "Bar Code" below.)
4. The new text for the back cover (Microsoft Word document)
5. The JPG of the logo (needed for the spine of the book)
6. The JPGs of the photographs of the authors for the back cover
BAR CODE:
There are free services on the Internet where you can generate a bar code graphic. I will provide you with the information you need to generate a bar code from one of these services. I do not know which of these free services is reliable. I understand some of these free services produce bar codes that sometimes have difficulty getting scanned or cannot be scanned at all. If you have experience with bar codes, please state that in your bid comments or in the PMB.
WORK-FOR-HIRE:
This work will need to be performed as a work-made-for-hire. We will have full rights to the copyrights of the work you produce in this project for us.
DELIVERABLES:
At the end of the job, we would like for you to deliver:
1. One PDF containing the entire cover, per the printer's specs above.
2. All original graphics files used to create the PDF, in case we need them for future editions of the book.
3. One PDF for our own use. This simply needs to be a cropped version of the front cover that you create, showing only the cover of the book.
I am very sensitive to price, so please bid accordingly. If someone bids the right amount, has appropriate experience, and can finish this job quickly, I may end the bidding early and select you. When bidding, please write the word "Excel" in your bid comments so that I know you speak English and understand and have read these requirements.
Additional Info (Added 7/1/2009 at 13:30 EST)...It has been brought to my attention that the attached PDF is probably not "print quality," as it may have some aliasing on the text. I do not know whether this is true as I am not a graphics expert. Please confirm this for yourself prior to bidding. Also, please note that the attached PDF is the *ONLY* file I have other than the original JPG of George Washington, which I do have in high quality format.
In addition, some of you are reporting that you cannot open the attached PDF. It is loading for some of you who have already bid, so I know the attached PDF is not corrupt.
