Here is an update on the Runes Dictionary cover, printed from the file I posted a while ago. I was able to get the gold foil to work reasonably well on the fabric paper. I recommend anyone printing this to print on the fabric paper because it really looks the best, and since the original was also printed onto fabric. The gold doesn't go on perfectly, but i don't mind since this is a really worn book anyways. The fabric is still attached to the paper sheet behind it. It has to be peeled off (kind of like a decal) and then I will glue it to a thin cardboard paper that can be easily worn on the edges. Once it's all worn and aged I think it will really look nice. The great thing about this paper is that you can tear into it, giving it that frayed look; that's the most fun part of making worn out books.
I was able to make three of these covers because I wanted to have some room for error, but aside from minor alignment issues that can't really be seen, they all printed easily.

Here's a link to the fabric paper that I've been using. I pretty happy with the results as the fabric has a fine texture, just enough to hold quite a lot of detail in the print.
