Laughing Laughing you need to hit the return key now and then Very Happy

OK ............... go copy your text synopsis from somewhere like imdb.
Then select your text tool...................and drag out a box with it across the back of your cover. Then just paste your text into that box..............bingo Wink

Make sure the text size you select is between 8 - 10.

You can use the "paragraph" tool box to justify your text in a number of ways also. You just need to experiment with it a little bit.

Don't forget to "highlight" your text to allow you to make changes to it. Wink

Hmmm......the template i'm using seems to be on top of a transparent canvas,which is larger than the cover image.How can i crop this transparent canvas off,so i'm just left with the right cover size.I want to do a test print of what i've done so far..........

use image size option tab, and resize the transparent canvas to size you need....
