Consider the code (which I compile with xelatex
)
\documentclass[12pt,onecolumn,openany,final]{book}
\usepackage[hmargin=0in,vmargin=0in,paperwidth=5.625in,paperheight=8.5in]{geometry}
\usepackage{pstricks,psvectorian}
\usepackage{scalerel} % For Vertical Stretch of Letters
\usepackage{scalefnt}
\usepackage{color}
\definecolor{BrooklynGold}{RGB}{228,168,73}
\definecolor{LightBlue}{RGB}{80,136,192}
\definecolor{crimson}{cmyk}{0,1,1,0.4}

\newcommand{\mytitle}[1]% #1 = title

\begin{document}
\thispagestyle{empty}
\noindent\begin{pspicture}(-7.135,0)(7.135,21.555)%
\renewcommand*{\psvectorianDefaultColor}{BrooklynGold}%
\psframe[fillcolor=crimson,fillstyle=solid](-7.135,0)(7.135,21.555)%
\psframe[linecolor=crimson](-7.135,0)(7.135,21.555)% draws frame.
% four corners
\rput[tl](-6.815,21.235){\psvectorian[width=4cm]{63}}
\rput[tr](6.815,21.235){\psvectorian[width=4cm,mirror]{63}}
\rput[bl](-6.815,0.32){\psvectorian[width=4cm,flip]{63}}
\rput[br](6.815,0.32){\psvectorian[width=4cm,flip,mirror]{63}}
\rput[tc](0,11.50){\mytitle{\vstretch{1.85}{\textbf{B o o k \, T i t l e}}}}
\rput[bc](0,9.25){\mmmytitle{\selectfont\scalefont{0.90}{\textbf{\textsl{T H E \, A U T H O R}}}}}
\end{pspicture}%
\end{document}
which produces the 5.625in x 8.5in image output
Now, I call in the above 5.625in x 8.5in PDF output into the following code (which I compile with pdflatex
)
\documentclass[12pt,twoside,openany]{book}
\usepackage[showframe,paperwidth=5.5in,paperheight=8.25in]{geometry}
\usepackage{mathptmx} % replaces obsolete times package.
\usepackage{pdfpages}
\textwidth=4in \textheight=6.40in \voffset -7pt
\begin{document}
%\includepdf[pages={1},scale=0.99,offset=-1 -7]{Cover_page2.pdf}
\includepdf[width=1.02273\paperwidth,height=1.0303\paperheight]{Cover_page2.pdf}
\end{document}
and which produces the following page output with dimensions 5.5in x 8.25in:
Now, the ratios in width=1.02273\paperwidth,height=1.0303\paperheight
I obtained by respectively calculating the ratios 5.625/5.5 and 8.5/8.25. Yet, as one can see from the second output, a portion of the top of the first image has been truncated. Though logically, it seems to me, that this approach should work.
QUESTION: Can anyone tell me what I may be doing wrong; and how I may properly scale the first image to fit nicely onto a 5.5in x 8.25in page?
Thank you.

I found that this code answer your request.
Capture from sumatra pdf reader.
To check the correct inclusion of the frame I used
\psframe[linecolor=green](-7.135,0)(7.135,21.555)
to makecover.pdf
instead of
linecolor=crimson
Or using your scaling
