KobelskiDesigns Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Question: I am trying to get the layout for a KDP Amazon paperback book. I have done 8x8, 8.25X8.25 and even 8.5x8.5 and I can't seem to line my page upright. In Affinity after you set your page, it comes with little boxes on the page and as long as you should stay in the box you should be good. Is that correct? because I have kept in the lines and it looks like it has too much white border or it will go out the lines. It is a 2400px squared and 129 pages. I have also have used the magnet to snap to guide to help me. The first picture is in Affinity the 2nd is the results in Amazon. (PS I am still 2 weeks new so don't get too technical.

KobelskiDesigns Posted December 11, 2019 Author Share Posted December 11, 2019 ok, the blue line photos are Affinity and the dash lines are Amazon. "I dream of painting and then I paint my dream." - Vincent Van Gogh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmarcos Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Have you tried changing bleeding option in KDP? I had a similar issue with an image on a KDP book. The image content was inside the margins but apparently part of the background was out. I switched from no bleed to bleed and that solved the problem. Cover size will vary, though, even if the interior document is the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
