You were promised bookplates, and indeed, you shall have them. But first, just a few useful bits of information:
- The bookplates can be downloaded as a PDF file and are designed to be printed onto a sheet of standard 4" x 3 1/3" sticky labels. You can find them at pretty much any office supply store and usually drugstores as well.
- I ran into all sorts of ridiculousness with getting these guys out of InDesign and into a PDF without the spacing of the text getting out of whack. Given my relative ineptitude with very fancy computer software programs, I am not able to tell you why. But you will need to do one important thing when you print.
When you press the print icon in Adobe, the print dialog box will open up. Down towards the bottom, where it says "page scaling" click the tab and set this at "none." Well done. Hey, that rhymes.
There are six different labels on the sheet, each with the same little illustration but with different text. Some are for putting in books at your house, some are for putting in books that you are giving to someone else.
So, now that you've read these highly technical and important notes, you may download your copy of the bookplates by clicking on the highlighed link below.
