PDF Upload Wizard

Uploading your PDF in the Product Wizard

In this step of the Product Builder, you will set the following: Book Title, Interior Book Color, Front and Back Cover. Most importantly, here is the section where you upload your pdf to Viovio

Book Title:
Pretty self explantatory - Here you can give your book a title.

Interior Book Color:
Full color if you have images and Monochrome if you are creating a text based book. This print is not suitable for images.

Uploading your PDF:
You can browse your computer to capture the file and upload to Viovio or you can FTP your PDF to Viovio. If you plan to FTP your file send a note to support@viovio.com so we can set up your account for FTP access

Front Cover:
You can use the first page of your PDF or upload a separate front cover file.

Back Cover:
You can elect to forfiet a back cover, use the second or last page of your PDF or upload a separate back cover file.

Click the UPLOAD PDF button when you are ready for the Product Builder to build your book. Please allow the Product Builder to process through. You will see the PLEASE WAIT button is light green until the process completes. When the process completes you are taken to Step 2 Cover Options section

Upload a complete PDF

Proceed to Step 2 of the Product Builder to create your cover and complete your product.

NOTE: The upload process may take some time but it is best not to click the Upload PDF button a second time. If you do, you may hang the system. Then it will take more time than necessary. We recommend you read your email, get a cup of coffee, call a friend, just do something that you find fun.

How do I select the size of my book with the PDF upload wizard? When I uploaded by mini book it forced to another size.

When you upload a PDF our system will automatically select the book trim size that most closely matches your PDF size.

Here are a few links to some of our pages on PDFs
http://www.viovio.com/wiki/PDF+Upload+Wizard
http://www.viovio.com/wiki/PDF+Creation+FAQ
http://www.viovio.com/wiki/PDF+Creation+Specifications
http://www.viovio.com/wiki/Cropping+And+Bleed

I would read each carefully some of the information may apply to you and some may not.

Also we power a site that has a very active forum and the creators are knowledgeable about PDFs. Check it out at http://www.photoshopcreativeelements.com

All the mini books are in the same aspect ratio - you will choose which size you want at purchase. It confused me when I ordered mini books the first time. But it really is a great feature - only one upload and lots of choices.
