Vellum’s New Image Features (And How Not to Wreck Your Book)

Vellum’s new image features open up a lot of possibilities—and just as many ways to break your book if you’re not careful. In this video, I walk through how Vellum actually handles images across eBook and print, what shows up where, and what works (or fails) with print-on-demand platforms like KDP, Ingram, and BookVault. This is a practical breakdown for authors who want better-looking books without accidentally tanking quality or making their designer miserable. In this video, you’ll learn: • The difference between flowable and fixed layouts • How images behave in eBooks vs. print in Vellum • What scene breaks, headers, borders, and full-page designs actually do • Image limitations across KDP, Ingram, and BookVault • How ink saturation affects quality (and why it matters) • Why dark pages and white text are risky with POD • Using Vellum’s template export to streamline design • What your graphic designer wishes you’d send them 👉 More Cover Villain resources: https://www.covervillain.com 👉 Author systems & tools: https://www.covervillain.com/notion #IndieAuthorTools #Vellum #BookDesign #PrintOnDemand #KDP #BookVault #CoverVillain
