    Forced Edges

    Hello! I was wondering if there was any possible way in the formatting to have a way to set up forced edges?

    Shipped Export
    From the Alhora team

    Hi Sierra, this should be delivered.

    Alhora supports simple repeating edge designs through Details → Book style → Backgrounds & borders, using a border that extends into the bleed and applies across the printed book. Bleed must also be enabled under Details → Print layout. However, automatically converting a picture into different artwork for each page, creating a complete image across the closed book’s edges, isn’t currently supported.

    If this is not what you meant, please email me at [email protected]!

    Hi! Yes, that's the whole purpose of this software. With any subscription method, you can export these books into how they need to be exactly formatted for IngramSpark, KDP, Apple Books and the like. This goes for both ebook and print copies.

    Hi Sierra, this bug is now resolved. It was due to a specific file type not being allowed in epubs. We now convert every image into acceptable epub images before send off. So should be fixed now :)
