Step by step
- Replace the mastheadType your journal’s name; keep it white over the dark top of the picture.
- Write the cover storyA short kicker, a 4–6 word headline and one line of deck.
- Change the artDouble-click the picture: its 3D scene opens with the cover frame, camera and depth of field. Update it in the figure when done.
- Submit the artJournals set their own masthead and lines, so they ask for the art alone: in the 3D Studio, switch on Ray traced, set Image size to Print (2550 × 3300 px, 300 dpi) and download the PNG. This cover shows how it will look.
