When you scroll down, you can see all the other pages. Okay, after clicking ‘OK’ the real fun starts!

Lastly I selected automatic text frames/automatische tekstframes. There needs to be a bigger margin there so that the text won’t be unreadable. The reason why the inside and outside margins are different is because the binding is at the inside of the page. I changed the inside/binnenkant to 21,844 mm, the outside/buitenkant to 14,112 mm, the top/boven to 19,304 mm and the bottom/onder to 12.700 mm.

The maker of the tutorial I used for this said he got these settings from CreateSpace, a website that provides free tools to help people self-publish. Secondly I added some pages by going to number of pages/aantal pagina’s and increasing the number to 5. I changed the with and height to 152 mm x 229 mm, which is around 6 inches wide and nine inches tall. In stead of using an A4 format I selected the custom/aangepast option. The first thing I adjusted was the size/grootte. If you prefer it to be on the left page, then select left/links. The default setting for the first page is/eerste pagina is is right/rechts because in a book the first page that has text on it is always on the right. Before you click OK there are a few settings that you need to change. Open Scribus and select the double sided/dubbelzijdige option.
