Experience Level: Entry
Hello,
I have the cover designed and I also have a word document which is the manuscript.
I need the book size to be 5" x 8" and I need the artwork uploaded perfectly with no errors as amazon is very particular.
I also need the word document uploaded correctly so the layout matches the page numbers. (to make sure every new chapter begins on the right page)
I need someone with past experience with uploading to amazon book publishing site.
Need this done today within next few hours if possible. But I really need to make sure no mistakes are made as they keep sending me an email back saying something is wrong.
Please see below last email they sent back to me:
We checked your files and found issues you need to fix before your book can be published on KDP:
Cover
Resize your front cover so that the image or background on the front cover extends far enough beyond the edge. Add an extra 0.125" (3.2 mm) along the top, bottom, and sides of your cover. This prevents manufacturing issues when the cover is trimmed.
Resize your back cover so that the image or background on the back cover extends far enough beyond the edge. Add an extra 0.125" (3.2 mm) along the top, bottom, and sides of your cover. This prevents manufacturing issues when the cover is trimmed.
Resize your cover so that the image or background on the spine extends far enough beyond the edge. Add an extra 0.125" (3.2 mm) along the top and bottom of your cover. This prevents manufacturing issues when the cover is trimmed.
Make sure all text on your back cover is at least 0.375" (9.5 mm) from the cover's edge. This helps to ensure the text isn't cut during manufacturing.
Remove all crop marks and color bars from your cover file. Crop marks are lines showing where pages should be trimmed. Color bars are strips with a series of patches used to ensure color balance during printing.
Update the size of your spine text in your cover file. Spine text needs at least 0.0625" (1.6 mm) on either side so that it doesn't wrap onto the front or back cover.
Where possible, we give pages numbers with examples. To make sure your entire book meets our guidelines, please review your entire manuscript file and fix all issues.
To update book details, go to your KDP Bookshelf. If you update your manuscript or cover, you'll have to upload the revised file to KDP. We'll review your book again to ensure it meets our requirements.
I have the cover design and manuscript I just need someone who knows what there doing so it all gets done perfectly.
Thanks
Chris
