Problems & Solutions - Supplemental Tips | Game Room Ideas
This video covers a couple of topics that were cut for time from the main video.
This video is supplemental material for: https://youtu.be/IGH2KpaeWhI
*BONUS TIPS*
In the main video, so that I could get to better solutions more quickly, there are other possible 'compromised' solutions for printing on letter paper that I didn't mention. They are a bit more technical, but if you are fluent in image editing, this should make perfect sense to you. Instead of using the 'shrink to fit' functions of your printer or software, you might shrink it in the editor, but only the length. This will keep your spine logos aligned. The cover will be complete, but just a bit shorter. Taking that one step further, you could separate the cover into parts and only shorten the back cover by just enough to have it print completely. Then, instead of an oddly unprinted edge, the front cover and spine will be perfect, and the back cover will be completed but slightly squished. You could use the test print resources of my website to determine the exact amount your printer can print, top to bottom. This is a possible workaround to print any cover, assuming you don't care about the back cover having a distortion.
As always, there are a number of paths to a conclusion.

There is probably a better way to create a bleed margin for printing. My hope was to simply introduce a somewhat viable method that is easy to explain in video form. An 80-pixel stretch (40 at each side) might be overkill.

Use caution. In the US Amazon store, a lot of listings for letter-sized paper come up even when you search for A4. Again, look specifically for inkjet or laser paper, depending on your needs.
