OpeningThe name for the size of a booklet. We usually say a few open books, that is, its width size is equal to a full sheet of paper (to distinguish between festive degree paper and large degree paper) how many fractions, or a few bits, such as 1/16 for 16 open, 1/32 for 32 open, or 1/8 for eight open.
Edition word count
Books are calculated by multiplying the number of words per line of the text by the number of lines per page and then by the number of pages in the book. In addition to the text, the word count range includes all other text pages and illustrations, and tables, and the empty lines on each side are counted as full pages.
Book Spine
Is the front and back cover of the booklet connected part equivalent to the thickness of the core.
Book spine (book back, Backbone; spine) refers to the front and back cover of the booklet connected part, equivalent to the thickness of the book core. That is the core surface and the end of the book joint. Also, hardcover books and magazines before and after the connection between the book shell and the book's back. The Paperback spine is flush, the core's surface and the end of the book is vertical; the hardcover spine is higher than the core's surface.
Although it has been unanimously recognized, the importance of spine design to design the spine is not an easy task, and sometimes it is not a matter of design ability but the problem of ideology. The book market is gradually opening up, publishing, distribution, and marketing forms have changed a lot, especially in direct contact with readers of the last link - bookstores, specific sales scale, display methods, etc., are different from the past. Although bookstores of all sizes are now trying to expand their display space, they are still unable to keep up with the variety and number of books published. As a result, competition for the publication and distribution of books has become fierce, and it is no longer easy for readers to hit the shelves in bookstores. Especially those of the same subject matter, title, quality of the book more and more, the display competition has been self-evident. Bookstores are helpless to insert many books on the shelves, only to show the spine, which can be described as "an inch of space an inch of gold." It is not easy for readers to find the books they need among the many varied spines, especially in libraries and even in homes, where texts are inserted in the shelves. Based on these circumstances, it can be judged that the importance of spine design will become more and more apparent and a long-term reality.
It has been said that the cover is the first face of a book, while the spine is the second face of the book. From a functional point of view of an artistic visual point of view, it should be emphasized that the range is as important as the cover. The key to carrying out spine design is a matter of understanding and thinking. By understanding the following key issues and solving them one by one, you can achieve spine design requirements.
