the covers are here for free, not for sale, so help keep it that way.

OK, IF YOU ARE READING THIS, IS BECAUSE YOU WANT TO PUT THE TRACKS TEXT INTO THE BACKCOVER.

the reason i do this is just to save some space on the server that hosted my website, and because i don't have all the free time i need to work on a new backcover for each new diferent track partition. i hope you undertand it.

JUST FOLLOW THE INTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. AND NOTE THAT THIS IS JUST AN EXAMPLE ABOUT THE WAY I THINK YOU COULD DO THIS, I'M SURE THERE ARE A LOT OTHER WAYS TO DO THE SAME.

I WILL DO IT USING MS WORD, BECAUSE I THINK IT IS THE MOST COMMON SOFTWARE IN COMPUTERS AROUND THE WORLD.

NOTED THAT THE CAPTURES ARE MADE TO A MS WORD IN SPANISH SO MAYBE THE COMMADS AREN'T EXACTLY AS I SPELLED THEM, SORRY FOR THAT.

 

 

> 01. first of all you need to have downloaded from my website the *.JPG archive with the backcover without text.

 

 

> 02. open a new document in ms word
(you can work now on the text it self and after it insert the image or, as we wiil do it, insert the backcover and after it put the track list)

 

 

> 03. go to the insert menu > image > from archive and look for the backcover image in you computer.

looks something like this, noted that the image get just between the setup margins, and the right size of it usually is bigger than that.

 




> 04. mark the image and right click on the mouse > click on image setup

 

 

 

> 05. it appear next window where you have to change the scale percent to 100% in wide and high size.

and now that we are here we will click on the design section on the same window and will mark the same options than below.

 

 

 

> 06. then the document will look somethng similar to next image:

noted that the image now is bigger than the margins and it is centered in the page.

 

 

> 07. Now we are ready to introduce the text with the tracks. As the image is most of all close to black put the text in white so you can read what you are writing. It could look like this.

as you can see we have to work on the margins to put the tracks list into the image to look at it best.


 

> 08. go to archive menu > page setup

as the image is centered on the page we could put the same margins on the right and the left, then the text will be centered on the backcover.


 

> 09. finally you will get a document similar to next ready to print:

Use the font you want and work with it, modify the size, change the colours, put the tracks in columns is you want… good luck

I hope this document could help you!

 

if there is something wrong, please let me know,
thanks
