I cannot open or use "doc.thread" file.
Do you have it in a more common format?

The supplied template is for Portrait oriented pages.
Your layout sketches indicate Landscape oriented pages.
What is the correct page orientation?
(I am guessing that they need to be portrait for standard print services.)
thanks

Hi ,, I am not sure but will have to look into it. Thanks

I shot the layout sketches on my iPhone..

The doc.thread files might be microsoft publisher files which are unreadable by me, and probably many others.
Could you possibly get them as a Word document (if the have no pictures)?
Maybe a PDF version would work best.
Thanks

Also I don’t Word As I am on a Mac

Hi,
I too am on a Mac.
Do you know what program the doc.threads are in?
Maybe you can get a "Pages" document or a PDF.
Thanks

ok.. i just saved them as jpegs and sent them over again...so you should be able to see how i would like the layout look ..thanks

I can see your layouts
The stuff I can't see is ...
"first bio page along with portrait of the artist.pub"
"last part of the bio for catalog.spub"

I presume the files contain your text/bio and contact information for the catalog. (the copy)
i.e. the wording you wish to have printed in the catalog.

In reviewing your instructions, I see that the coloring book covers is tightly cropped and bleed off the page.
Is that what your looking for on the inside pages?
Do you want the names of the paintings to appear?
If so, we will need white margins and gutters.

In as much as this is your catalog, do you wish to create art for the covers as you did for your coloring book?

Sorry to be so full of questions but I prefer to measure twice and cut once.
Thanks

I'm working on it so wait for my submission.
