I have written my book and plan on using Lightning Source as my printer. The manuscript is in a Word document. I'm ready to move on to laying out the cover. I have a strong art background and know exactly what I want.
I have a few questions.
Does Lightning Source give guidelines as far as acceptable book cover software?
Do they advise on formatting the manuscript? I believe my next step with the manuscript is to use InDesign or QuarkXPress. I feel as if I'm getting a little overwhelmed.
Can anyone suggest a simple software program for cover design?
Forgive me if there is a posting of step-by-step instructions for working with Lightning Source or other printers. I am new to this and searched all over the posts and could not find anything like that.
Thank you
