First Attempt

Attempt 1

First of all the book is far too small. I will keep the proportions but enlarge the book

43.7mm x 96.7mm has a 1:2.21 ratio.

A4 paper is 210 × 297 mm 

80mm x 176.8mm
90mm x 198.9mm
100mm x 221mm
110mm x 243.1mm
120mm x 265.2mm
130mm x 287.3mm
140mm x 309.4 mm 

Other Printing Considerations:
The book in total is 5 sheets of paper (20 pages, 11 spreads) Therefore the whole book can be saddle stitched in one section. The upper limit is 8 sheets. This will depend on stock choice.

Second Attempt

Attempt 2

Attempt two was 130mm x 287.3mm which was too big. It looked like a wine menu. The type was 24 point which is uncomfortable large. It also had to be printed on A3 as the width was two large for A4. I did not consider two pages next to one another when being printed. This would make production costs more expensive.

I will now try a format of 100mm x 221mm

Medium Size

Front Cover Size:65

Title Font Size:60

Body Text size: 12

The medium sized publication is the most comfertable size, both to handle and in terms of type size
