Frequently Asked Questions

Is this book cover generator really free?
Yes, completely free. No signup, no credit card, no watermarks. Generate as many covers as you need. We built this tool to help authors get started — if you love the result, you can publish your book with Books.by for free too.
What resolution are the covers?
Covers are generated at 300 DPI (dots per inch), which is the industry standard for print books. They include 0.125" bleed on all sides, making them ready for professional printing without any additional editing.
Can I use these covers for print books?
Absolutely. The covers are generated at print-ready resolution with proper bleed margins. They work with Books.by's print-on-demand service, Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, and any other publishing platform.
What book dimensions are supported?
We support 11 standard book sizes: 5"×8", 5.25"×8", 5.5"×8.5", 6"×9", 6.14"×9.21", 6.69"×9.61", 7"×10", 7.44"×9.69", 8"×10", 8.25"×11", and 8.5"×11". The most popular size for novels is 6"×9".
How does AI book cover generation work?
Our tool uses advanced AI image generation to create unique cover designs based on your book's title, genre, and description. The AI considers genre conventions, colour psychology, and typography to produce a professional cover. Each generation is unique — no two covers are the same.
Can I edit the generated cover?
The generated cover is delivered as a high-resolution PNG file that you can open in any image editor (Photoshop, Canva, GIMP) for further customisation. You can adjust colours, add additional text, or make any changes you'd like.
