Publishing tools
Operational tools for ISBN, metadata, imprint prep, and review workflows.
This route is the practical side of the v2 site: utilities for preparing records, checking production basics, and then moving directly into publisher or enterprise workflows when the task becomes operational.

Print note
The PDF export follows the compact ISBN label style: top ISBN line, tall EAN-13 bars, and bottom-readable digits.
Export note
SVG is the clean master for design workflows. PDF is best for print-ready placement on a back cover.
Metadata check
Record readiness checker
Use step 1 for the primary record, step 2 for the mirrored Arabic or English details, then generate an ISBN-linked metadata packet for catalog and distributor review.
Workflow mode
Choose a single-language check or a full Arabic-English readiness pass.
Step 1 · Primary record
Enter the English-facing metadata first.

ISBNs do not store title, author, publisher, or cover data inside the number. Use step 3 to generate the metadata packet that should be attached to the ISBN.
Production calculator
Spine size calculator
Estimate the spine width for a paperback or hardback using page count, paper caliper, and any extra allowance you want to add for your production workflow.

Treat this as a production estimate. Final spine width should still be confirmed against the printer’s paper stock, binding method, and cover template.
