In March of 2021, I had the good fortune of working on a tourism commercial for Dubai. While working and not working, I saw much of what amazing Dubai has to offer. The architecture was like nothing I've ever seen. Truly a marvelous and special place. #dubai #burjkhalifa #skidubai #emirates #uae #dubaimall

Thanks❤
This was just the video I needed to help me however I have my two entire illustrated books in pdf already. I just barely began learning adobe acrobat pro and now realize I need to use illustrator . I have rescanned my first of two books in jpeg . How is the stretching of illustration done ? Is it editable in the new format page? I’m new to adobe illustrator.
This might not work any longer with Illustrator 28.1 and Acrobat 23.0. *.ai files are not supported for import. The files you intended to drag and drop show a danger icon with the following message: "Acrobat does not support the conversion of one or more of your files to PDF. Please remove these files or go to Settings and choose the PDF Portfolio option."
Is author's copy free? Do we pay anything for getting our own book?
Nice work, thanks for this. Appreciate the help ☘️
Can you confirm this still works on the current version of Acrobat. For me it does not allow me to combine the .ai files.
OH MY GOSH !!! So happy I found your channel !!! THANK YOUUU
How you make a full pages!?
Great video. Maybe you can do one on book marketing. I am sure you have some great ideas for this as well. Thanks!
do you change any of the save settings? I followed your video and tried uploading to KDP, but when I launch the previewer it says it won't accept my manuscript. Thanks so far for the helpful tips! I didn't know I could take my ai straight to acrobat
Boom! That was easy. Thanks!
Wow omg this video just made my month!I'm making my second book now with lots of art and layers, and Preview kept crashing when I was trying to combine the PDF there even tho I have a new M1 14" MacBook Pro with 32 GB ram! So I Googled what to do and found this video and with this method the whole book making thing is such a breeze now! I save my Adobe Illustrator cloud file as a PDF on my computer (I checked the box optimize for fast web view and unchecked preserve Adobe editing to reduce file size) and then combine them using acrobat and it is so fast and easy and KDP accepted the file. I am so happy to have found this video. There wasn't any others I saw like it so without it I don't know what I would have done. Thanks so much 😍😍
I love to hear it! Congrats on finishing your second book!!
Hi Rich! I've watched this video a few times. Great resource! I'm wondering did you change DPI/PPI settings while in Illustrator or did you apply them while in Acrobat Pro? I want to make sure I've got the DPI right before uploading to KDP. Much appreciated!
Best video for KDP's children book. A million thanx
Exceedingly helpful!
Hi, I can use just illustrator to create a pages of the book or not? Because I trying many times and is not going ..
Thank you for sharing! Does Amazon print on the pastedown?
this tutorial as well as your others are incredibly helpful! thank you
Your book looks really nice. Good Job!
Hi! The book looks beautiful! I am a children's book illustrator and my client (author) wants to print only a few copies for personal use. Does kdp give you the option of just printing some copies but not putting them out for sale? Thanks!
Hi Sumitra! Congrats on your book! Yes you can do this. After creating your project and uploading your book, just make sure you don’t publish it. This will allow you to order proofs for your publisher without making it public on Amazon. Good luck!
@@richmillardTV thanks! Author copies don’t have watermarks right?
@@sumitral1389 Author copies are great for resale or gifting. No watermarks!
You can order author copies after publishing at print cost! Here is how to do it: ua-cam.com/video/VokH2LDKS7Q/v-deo.html
Thank you so much Rich. Youre videos have been so helpful. And I have just ordered Surfer Sam!
They look great.. congrats!
I do the same thing. they make great Christmas gifts. Mine are pencil drawings. sooooo fantastic when get one published
Congrats
Thanks Rich! I don't see a place to enter the age or grade of children the book is for. Can this be entered after publishing the book?
If I remember, things like that can be edited after publishing. Don't let that detail hold you up from publishing! Congrats!
@@richmillardTV Thanks.
Why dont you use the live paint tool?
Full disclosure, I’m not an expert at Illustrator so it’s possible that the live paint tool would work great. I just couldn’t get it to work well for me. I’ve also found with Adobe software that there are many ways to skin a cat and often I discover easier ways each time I use it.
@@richmillardTV try live paint tool, its so much easier
Hi there , I have a query , what if I create designs for low/no content books from Canva which are licence free and once I publish, can anyone else copy my design and get their product trademarked or copyrighted ?Can you please advice for situation like this?
This is a very important topic, this part of formating your book is something new for me and one factor that I was considering, I've got many ideas but I need software skills and putting them together to come up with a final version. Thanks a lot
Thank you surfer cutie!
Thanks for the great video
Congrats. How long did it take to arrive?
If I remember correctly, it was 4-5 business days
@@richmillardTVis it free of cost?
hi Can i ask if your the paper of your KDP book is thin uncoated ?I just received my Kdp book today and the paper is so thin
This just helped me so much!! Thank you
What is your manuscript in when you upload it? If I don’t have a publishing software program can I use something onKDP.
Awesome. You made a beautiful book. God bless you! waiting for mine.
The fact that you don't have more views, only shows that folks aren't doing their homework! Thanks for this so much, truly! I was looking for a solution to create & combine multiple PDF print files from Canva since there is a data save limit of up to 300 images and this has limited the amount of pages I have in designing coloring books.
Thanks for the info. I look forward to getting started using your videos. I have a chromebook and understand I can use Boxy SVG as an illustrator?
WHAT ABOUT MAERGINS
hi! I am uploading my book that has images on each page,,but every time it is giving error or failed. Can you please suggest.
That was very helpful! I only have problem with saving the file properly. Should I pick "Print" or "Save As..." when saving as .PDF?
"acrobat does not support the conversion of one or more of your files" how did you do that?
Thank you! How do you select the book size?
Very helpful.
Very nice video.
Thanks for sharing
what size is this?
I want to ask a few things. Are we going to extend our images to bleed or just keep the illustration to the actual trim size? And 2nd thing is are we going to use the same bleed value for the whole book or is there going to be some changes considering the left side page or the right side page?
very helpful and very well explained.
how many copies are approximately sold in 1 month?
Honestly I don't sell many. Currently I sell around 5/month with zero marketing. If you want to move books, you have to put the word out. I did it just for the joy of making a book for my kids but I'm sure if you market yours you will see better numbers. You get out of it what you put into it.
@@richmillardTV I ask a lot of other children's writers on youtube, they sell about 60-100 copies a month for one book. Marketing does not need to be ruled out, especially since everything is already conveniently built into the Amazon. Usually, whoever deals with books as a business, they say you need to take by quantity. It would be nice if you gave the exact number of copies, otherwise we have different criteria, suddenly 10,000 copies are not enough for you, ahaha)
Hey Rich, Tried looking for a video on how to export the illustrator file for KDP and couldn’t find it! Could you please help with a link or share how to do that? Great video btw cheers!
Hi! Try this tutorial I made. Did this help? ua-cam.com/video/wOSe9-UvDq0/v-deo.html
