Book cover templates

Just had a look on Adobe Stock and competitors and agree that most of the fare on offer is for mockups rather than an actual InDesign file that's ready to go.

@Derek Cross provided a link to a good script to make a book cover from scratch. Similarly, Indiscripts has a paid book cover maker for InDesign (https://indiscripts.com/category/projects/HurryCover) that I've reviewed on my own blog (https://colecandoo.com/2024/07/23/indiscripts-hurry-cover-3-has-it-covered/).

Note that Marc from Indiscripts and I have known each other for a while so take this into consideration when reading the article, though this declaration is mentioned at the end of the article.

On Adobe Stock

 Set your filters 

You can find some with spines like this one

However, this seems more like a mockup rather than template to use. 

However, there are plenty of ideas and covers to choose from.

And plenty of forum topics for setup

Thank you so much.  Most of these are not InDesign files though from the hour or so I spent looking previously. They are mostly JPGs, PTSD etc. I did find a couple but was hoping for more choice. 

What was your search term on Stock? I used "book covers" and have 100 pages.

A lot are Photoshop (.PSDT) and Illustrator (.AIT) but they should work if you have an All Apps subcription.
