Fantastic! I am even more motivated to take your courses next year. Now I’m sweating through the heart attacks of publishing my memoir 😅 Thank you much for providing all these publishing education videos. I was just thinking about 30 years ago before all the online resources etc. I immigrated to the USA without any internet and email available to me. I love the modern times!
Hi Mandi, I dropped a comment on some of your other vids. Just wondering if Ingramspark supports a "french cover" or "french flaps" for paperback books? Also called a gatefold. If so, any experience with it and is it costly? Thanks, Jim
Doesn't the book cover file Layers have to be flattened through "Flatten Image" before making the cover into a PDF? Or save the book cover into a PDF book cover file while it is in the Photoshop layers format? Thanks.
Hi, I have a question. If you could return it would be greatful. When you setup paper back books in KDP, is there a minimum number of pages. For me it said min is 72 pages. Please help me on this. Thanks 😊
i watched already like 50 videos nobody talk about size, my cover loading like 30 minutes and nothing , also nobody tell it must be page after page like a book pages or it is one list where both pages are available , is there any formatting required?
That "page turn direction" kind of threw me. I get that you move through the book from left to right, but the actual page turns are taking the page on the right and moving it to the left... if I had been reading this on my own, I absolutely would have thought the standard western answer would be phrased as right to left. So confusing...

Yes, there is a minimum. Paperback is 24 and hardcover is 76
@@MandiLynnWrites Thanks a lot. Do you have any video links about designing the paperback cover pages...for kids story books

*What resolution should the image file be saved at? 150 DPI or 300 DPI?*
Draft 2 digital in order to have our book with them, they are asking for a picture of me & my license. Is this true?
