3. CHANGE ORIENTATION
Perhaps your text won’t fit because it’s too long for its orientation.
This usually happens in Portrait orientation, which fits only a few
characters. Both Landscape and Stacked orientations fit more text,
so try either one.
Example:
Original Title
(Too Long)
Reoriented
Title
Sometimes it’s a combination of these three elements, so
experiment until one works. If you want the quickest solution, try
AutoFit. It usually gets the job done.
When your book is very thin
If your book is less than 38
sheets, the front flap of the strip
(the part that wraps around the
cover) is actually wider than the
spine. In this situation—when
the front flap has more room for
titling—the PowisPrinter™
offers you the option of printing
your title on this flap. Using this
front flap gives you a little more
space and flexibility.
How it works: when you have
your title design ready to go,
press PRINT and enter your
book thickness. The printer will
suggest your front-flap option:
Press Y to print on the front flap; N to print your title on the book
edge as usual. If you choose to print on the book edge, don’t
worry about your title’s appearance. It’ll be as good-looking as
ever—if a touch small.
Book is too thin for best edge titling.
Print front flap of strip instead? (Y/N)
