ISBN Barcode and Cover Template Generators

We’re excited to introduce two new features: an ISBN Barcode Generator and the Custom Cover Template Generator!

Designed to simplify the book preparation process, these tools will help you get your files ready for printing with greater convenience and confidence. This article will explain these new features and how to access them.

Generate Your ISBN Barcode in Seconds

Every book sold through retail channels typically needs an ISBN barcode so it can be identified and scanned at checkout.

Our new ISBN Barcode Generator makes creating your barcode quick and easy. Simply enter your ISBN and price and the tool will generate a barcode that you can download and incorporate into your book cover design.

The barcode will be provided as a separate PDF file for you to place on your cover artwork.  If you would like us to add the barcode to your cover file for you, this is available as a graphic-related service.

Whether you're publishing your first novel, releasing a new edition, or preparing a book for distribution, you can now create your ISBN barcode without having to search for a separate online generator.

Create a Custom Book Cover Template

Getting the dimensions of your book cover right is an important part of preparing print-ready artwork. Factors such as book size, page count, paper selection, and binding type all affect the final cover dimensions, particularly the spine width.

Our new Cover Template Generator takes the guesswork out of this process.

Enter your book's specifications into the generator to create a custom cover template with the correct dimensions, including the front cover, back cover, spine, and required bleed and text-safe areas.

You can use this template as a guide when designing your cover artwork in programs such as Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, or Photoshop. It helps ensure your design is properly sized and positioned before submitting your files for printing.

Available with a Free Customer Account

Both the ISBN Barcode Generator and Custom Cover Template Generator are available to all customers who sign up for an account with Sure Print & Design.
