InDesign Templates Available on MyBooks

We are all strapped for time, and anything that can be done to save time for our customers is always a big win. With that in mind, we are happy to announce we have an exciting new enhancement developed for MyBooks that we think all designers and those working with files will appreciate. If you create your covers in InDesign, you can now download your IDML file directly from MyBooks.

Here is how it works:

  • In the templates area of MyBooks, you will see a new button beside the “Download PDF” button called “Download InDesign”(see example below),
  • This will allow you to download an IDML file that can be opened in InDesign
  • This InDesign file will be set up to the correct size according to the template
  • The InDesign file includes guidelines to help as a starting point for cover design

This is a great way to save you time and help minimize the chance of errors with your cover dimensions.

Keep in mind that we also have some great help videos now available for MyBooks. They are available and easy to access by going to the “HELP” button in the bottom right corner of the screen. It will bring you directly to a series of videos if you need immediate assistance 24/7. Each video is about one minute long and touches on the various features in MyBooks.

If you have any questions about this, please contact our technical support team at bptech@friesens.com or call 1.866.324.6401 and ask for tech support.

We hope you will enjoy this time-saving tool.
