The template is a reusable single-page guide, not a complete imposed booklet. Build the ordered number of pages, including covers, in reading order and confirm the required upload sequence and binding orientation before final artwork. Keep all pages consistent in size and add 0.125" bleed per side. Leave at least 0.25" safety inside trim and additional room near binding as needed for page count. Supply CMYK PDF with 300 dpi raster artwork; remove guides. Production prepress must account for binding and creep.
