[Slipcover] "PDF" case (Updated with Magazine and Comic Book Cases)

My first release. I redrew Apple's PDF preview icon from scratch to use with Slipcover. I hope someone out there finds it useful.

Very cool. 

I thought OS X did this by default though?

Thanks all.

Dustin, OS  X does do it by default for PDF's, but not for other file types that one could use it with (like, for example, CBR's (comic books)), hence the Slipcover case. I might be the only one to have any real use for it, but I figured I might as well share... smile

The whole concept of SlipCover is niche, so by all means tongue

Thanks again smile

Awesome!
Could you try making one without the binder rings, so it looks like a magazine? smile

Here's two more variations, one with just a plain spine for magazines, and one with staples so it looks more like a comic book.

Thanks all, I'm glad you like them.

macosxleopardfan: I'm kind-of busy at the moment so I don't think I'll be able to get around to making a book template. Sorry...

I feel like an idiot, but I cannot get this to work for the life of me. Everytime I drop a .cbr onto it the app just goes blank? Sort of embarrassing...

Re: [Slipcover] "PDF" case (Updated with Magazine and Comic Book Cases)

To get it to work with cbr's you'll have to export the cover image (or whichever page you want to use) from the cbr (some CBR viewers don't do this, but some like Sequential make it as easy as command-s) and then use the exported image with Slipcase. Then you can apply the icon to the cbr. smile_thumbup

Glad to see some people are finding these useful. smile
