Rabbits-boa-cover.png

Cover for the Czech translation and edition of Fazil Iskander's Rabbits and Boa Constrictor book. Vectors were edited in Inkscape, scanned illustration in Gimp. Fold marks were added manually, as requested by the printing company. The interesting part was using LuaLaTeX to typeset the cover text (with appropriate fontspec settings, and using microtype) since Scribus' greedy paragraph-breaking algorithm would produce too much hyphenation, especially on the narrow colum on the flap. The inside of he book was done with LuaLaTeX as well.
