Add a section-title page ("Die Geschichten") as page 3 so all stories
begin on page 4. Image and text for each scene now land on the same
facing spread (even=left image, odd=right text). Page count: 99 → 100.

- Puppeteer writes to a temp kaleidoskop-raw.pdf
- Ghostscript re-processes with -dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress to fully embed
all fonts and prevent subsetting (KDP checklist item 6)
- PDF info dict is written via PostScript pdfmarks, with title/author/
subject encoded as UTF-16BE hex to support German umlauts (item 13)
- File size drops from ~108 MB to ~9 MB (placeholder art; will grow with
real 300 DPI illustrations but stays well under KDP's 650 MB limit)
- GS failure falls back gracefully to the raw Puppeteer PDF

The title page is redundant since the KDP cover (cover.pdf) already
establishes title and author. Interior now opens directly on the
copyright page, followed by the TOC and stories (99 pages total).
Removed unused .page--title CSS from layout and typography.

Replaces Georgia with Cormorant Garamond (display, 300 italic) + Lora
(body) across all cover text. Adds @font-face declarations pointing to
fonts/ (same as interior). Updates gold tokens to match interior palette.
Visual changes: front title in Cormorant light italic with gold gradient
rule below, ❧ ornament replacing ✦, synopsis body in Lora.
cover.js now reads 00-front-matter.md to inject author name into spine,
front, and removes the [AUTOR] placeholder.

Replaces Georgia + per-story color theming with a unified premium
fairytale look: Cormorant Garamond (display/titles) + Lora (body),
warm cream text pages (#faf8f2 with paper noise texture), deep ink
typography (#1e1b18) throughout — no per-story text color variation.
- fonts/: committed WOFF2 files via @fontsource packages; auto-copied
by scripts/setup-fonts.js (runs as postinstall)
- Typography: story number in small caps, hairline rule, ❧ ornament
- Layout: cream background replaces per-story bg, radial glow on title
- build.js: passes frontMatter (author, year) to templates
- Templates: author byline on title page, cleaner imprint page

Guides (trim/safe-zone/spine lines) are design references only and
must not appear in the submitted PDF — hidden via display:none.
Barcode placeholder is now an empty white box so KDP can place the
ISBN barcode automatically without printing a label.

scripts/cover.js computes the exact cover canvas dimensions from the
page count in book-meta.json (written by build.js), using the KDP
Premium Color spine formula (0.002347 in/page), and renders a
Nunjucks template to a single PDF containing back cover, spine, and
front cover with bleed (0.125 in) and safe-zone overlay guides.
- `pnpm cover` — generate output/cover.pdf
- `pnpm all` — build interior + both PDFs in one command
