Confirm trim size and page count
Start from the current specifications for the edition you intend to print. Confirm trim dimensions, paper choice and the final interior page count before calculating the spine. A draft interior can change page count, so regenerate the printer template after the text is final. Record the edition and template version alongside the cover files; a layout for one format should not be assumed to fit another.
