With the images it’s a bit different though, you may want to “play” with the safe area in order to have a “full page” image on your portfolio, like in my presentation page. So make sure that your text is always within the safe area (BookWright does a good job in giving you all sort of alerts to avoid unwanted cutouts). Whatever is on that zone can be affected by cut off and binding of the page. Those are respectively “safe area” and “trim line”. TIP: pay attention to those pink + red lines on your pages. Drag and drop one of your uploaded pictures in the empty page to fill the upper part of the page, then create a text container at the bottom where you will insert your presentation. Let’s now create the “Presentation” page: Click on “Background” on the top menu to do so. First thing to do is changing the background color of all pages to black. TIP: remember, the total number of pages in a Blurb Magazine must be a multiple of 4, so plan ahead when thinking about the total number of pictures to use.Īs a reference below you will find the overall structure of my portfolio, which is made of a total 44 pages.Īlright, let’s move forward. Yep, blank pages everywhere, but no panic, this is going to be super easy!įirst thing to do is to upload into the tool all the pictures you are planning to use in your portfolio: I recommend to choose this format unless you have a tight budget.Ĭhoose a title for your book and you are now ready to create your portfolio. For my portfolio I chose the Premium Magazine. Once you will download the tool, you will be presented with the following screen:Ĭlick the “Create” button, on the following screen select “Magazines”.
