I uploaded a book to Blurb. All the pages came over okay, but Blurb has named the book the same as a previous book. Where do I assign a name for the book?

When I have designed my book and [Send Book to Blurb]- I am signed in to Blurb with a screen "Your Book Information" that asks for the Book Title (and sub-title)- That is only the 'title' that blurb uses to list the book on its site (Should you direct others to buy your book from Blurb).

But the Blurb 'Title' need not be the same any text you add to the Cover Page in the Book Design. Any Text (Your Book 'title') on the cover becomes part of the image file sent to Blurb.

Thanks for the information. Since I didn't want to sell my book, the "Your Book Information" wouldn't change the title. I did realize that the 'title' was not printed on the book, but it is confusing to have the same title for several books in my project list on Blurb. I was hoping to find out how the name is determined, so that all of my future projects won't have the same name.

"to find out how the name is determined, " YOU determine what the 'Title' is. YOU type it into the [Book Title:] field.

The Blurb Title could be the same as your Book Title- making recall easier.

Different book - different Title in the [Your Book Information] Blurb dialog that prompts you when you 'Send' a new book.

My example shown on the Blurb site:-

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.

Lightroom Classic is where the book is created and sent to Blurb. I'm assuming something in Lightroom Classic sends the book's name.
