You need to use a much sharper knife for the rounding - like a razor. Apart that, try to use better quality paper for the cover. What you try to achieve is very rare requirement, so I think you're mostly on "uncharted waters". Good luck!

I agree with @Puch , but also consider talking to your customer... I would think this will weaken the spine as well, making it more prone to coming apart. If they just want the rounded corner look, tell them you suggest to round the outer, non-spine edges.

Could you die cut the cover to match your round corner before its bound?
