My grandfather served in WWII and wrote a great deal of poems about his wife and children. Someone laminated the pages years ago trying to preserve them. The pages are in tact, but quite yellow under the laminate. I've scanned them all using into JPG color as the B&W and greyscale both looked...

I am creating my first MPIX photobook and had a few questions. 1) How much space should I leave for bleed around the edges? (for a 10x10 book should I make the pages 10.125x10.125 or greater than that? 2) How much space do I need to leave for the gutter? Is it better to just have blank space in the center...

Thank you Matt. I can now open the program and open my previously created MPIX books. However, unfortunately, all the pictures appear blurry and pixelated. They do no sharpen up as they did when I orignally created the books. I also tried adding pictures to a new book - same problem. As a result the...

I am running Windows Vista (64bit) and in the past had no problems opening and using the MPIX Photo Book program. Than I tried running it one day and I got an error message. So I uninstalled the photo book program, downloaded the most recent version and installed it. However, I continue to get the same...

Thanks for that great info, it is exactly what I needed! But how do I add that bar in Mpix my photo book software and how big does it need to be? Also what woould the correct photosize be for a portrait book? I am so nervous about making a mistake... Jesse

Hi all, this is my first post and I would like to thank you in advance for taking the time to read it and post help. I am creating my first photobook. I shoot with a Nikon D80, it has a 3:2 Aspect Ratio. I want my full size images in the book... I am doing a Portrait 8.5 x 11 book. So I have been editing...

I made a 10x10 custom cover book with approximately 50 pages for a Wedding Story. I also made identical 5x5 parents books. I am going to purchase an extra 10x10 and an extra 5x5 for my sample books. I am thinking that to be safe, I'll order linen for the brides 10x10 and 2 5x5 parents. Then I'll...

I am having the same problem in a book I received this week - Just as you show in your example, the left side of certain letters are clipped by the size of the text box. In my case they are a serif type font, and in many cases the serifs and some further portions of the letters are missing, and it is...

I would like to know if there are guidelines available for those photobooks. I would like to design my own pages/covers and import them into mpix software. Information such as bleeds, resolution page/cover size would be helpful TIA Arthur

I've just finished preparing two books, and found that the software from Mpix is much better than the online application at your biggest competitor! The "My Photo Books" application still has kinks to work out, but it's a great start. Here are the lessons I've learned: ADDITIONAL...
