HELP!!! The Dark Hurts is going to print and I need your opinion ASAP (Tuesday latest) should the cover be a Matte or Gloss finish?
Please comment and share this is so important to me.
Thank you all

8 年Matte, gloss is out.

8 年Matte. Glossy covers (especially black or dark) just look all greasy from fingerprints so quickly. Just discussed this recently when looking at a client's recently published book. Within 5 mins of minimal handling it looks all smeary.

8 年I much prefer matte. Most of the books on my shelf are matte, and that's what I print my books in now. I had a gloss one before and was not fond of the way it looked! Hope that helps :)
