    Mine isn't even giving me specifics as to what the error is? Do you know how I go about finding out? I am super frustrated because other videos I watched about doing this were like "it's so super easy" and I'm like, uh no it's not!

    I have two self illustrated books . I am using adobe acrobat pro (which kdp does Not support) and believed this one program could accomplish the project. My text and illustrations are correct however I did not use a template or other program so my manuscripts reject do to this. Interior
    Add 0.125" (3.2 mm) to your book's page width and 0.25" (6.4 mm) to the page height to ensure that the images in your manuscript extend beyond the edge of the page. Once you have added the size, extend any images or backgrounds that you want to reach all the way to the edge of the page 0.125” (3.2 mm) beyond the trim line. This prevents manufacturing issues when the file is trimmed to size. See examples PDF page(s) 4, 6, 9, 13 - 14, 16. Must I buy yet another program to learn it and finish ?

    The information is very helpful. I just want to know how to make my first page look like my book cover. All the elements and text go to the edge of the page, but it says to put them inside the margin. If I place everything inside the margin, the elements will not go to the edge of the page. What is this problem? (book with bleed)

    I kepp getting the "Resize the background or image on your cover so that it extends 0.125” (3.2 mm) beyond the trim line. All covers must be sized for bleed, which means you need to add an extra 0.125" (3.2 mm) along the top, bottom, and sides of your cover file. Once you have increased the size of your cover, extend any images or backgrounds that you want to reach all the way to the edge of the page 0.125” (3.2 mm) beyond the trim line. This prevents manufacturing issues when the cover is trimmed to size." Helppp please

      Sounds like your cover document wasn't sized correctly - you can input your dimensions and get a template with the right dimensions here - kdp.amazon.com/en_US/cover-calculator

If you could ask me for guidance as I don't understand how to fix it.

    Hi, thanks for the video. I'm surprised you didn't address the Most common error, "fonts are not embedded". Sure KDP fixed it for you but you still risk a small chance that your design will display slightly different. How do we embed fonts in the PDF before uploading? Thanks again, your videos are very informative.

    Hi, I have a question, I submitted a hardcover book with a colored interior and since they only have premium color and it's so expensive I chose the black and white interior option, it transformed to black in white in the previewer and it was approved, my only concern is when they set-up the "Look Inside" it's still showing as colored. Will that honor the black and white or will they print it as colored?

    • @PassiveIncomeTemplates
      @PassiveIncomeTemplates  2 роки тому +1

      It will print as black and white. If you’re concerned about the images showing in color with look inside, I’d recommend editing your interior and turning the first few pages that show with look inside black and white so that you don’t confuse customers!

Can we set a default , so we don't need to click the dropdown list to choose the size (for example) every time when we upload a single book ?
