global distribution - appropriate cover text

Just a quick question ...

I have read somewhere (maybe regarding e-books) that certain language, urls or website addresses and the non-capitalization of author names is not permitted.

My question is...  for an actual physical book to be considered for the global distribution option/package, do the same guidelines apply to the front and back cover of a book?

Many thanks in advance ~

Re: global distribution - appropriate cover text

EPUB- 

" Regardless of how they appear on the cover, title and subtitle must be correctly capitalized. The first letter of all words in the title and subtitle should be capitalized, except for the following words: a, an, and, for, from, of, or, the, to. The first and last word of the title and subtitle should always be capitalized."

No, the only constraint is that all text (logos, barcodes, ect) must not  be within 0.5" of the cover edge.

Re: global distribution - appropriate cover text

Thank you Ken...  I just wanted to place a web address on the back cover and one of the reviews I've had contains a word that some may consider a little risque : )
