| Changing template spine size. |

After reviewing one of my indi books, I want to increase the spine width from .835"/21.21mm to 0.880"/22.35mm in my Gimp 2.10.36/Windows11. I am reusing my original book template so the only change required is the spine size (more pages in the new edition). How can I best do this in Gimp? Step by step would be good.
Secondly when I open a template image as a PNG in Gimp, how can I view its actual size? Thanx, Stusamuso.

I am a small church secretary who is relatively new to GIMP. I need to create an overlay of text on a transparent background to place over a photo. In short, I use a photo of a baptism to create the certificate of baptism for the individual, so I need to create this transparent layer with the basic text that can be altered with each individual. Not sure if I'm making sense. Can anyone help?

| GIMP Appimage loader update |

I have updated GIMP (Panda Jim) to 2.10.38.
Is it possible to update the Appimage loader to correspond? (gimp2-10-36-python2-mm-Ubuntu.Appimage)
I have tried extracting the Appimage, but could not see where to make the necessary changes.
I am running Ubuntu 20.04, but with the Unity desktop. Is it possible to upgrade this to 22.04 (or 24.04) whilst retaining Python 2.7?
Any help and advice greatly appreciated.
david.

| Confused about PPI inb GIMP |

Hi, I've just started to use GIMP. I scanned in an image at 1200 DPI. The document is 6 x 8.5 inches but when I open the document in GIMP the "set to canvas size" shows the size to be double but 300 ppi so I'm confused about the sizing. Another image/document I scanned in at 600 dpi is the correct size on GIMP (6 x 8.5 inc) but the dpi is 300 - surely it should be 600 dpi or double the size? Can someone please explain this to me? Am I looking at the wrong place to find the size of my document? I need to generate digital prints at the largest size possible at 300 dpi. I'm on a MAC. Thank you
