mdesigns Posted March 9, 2024 Posted March 9, 2024 Hi, I am creating a kid's picture book and as per my affinity publisher setup, it has 32 pages. Page 1: Title page Page 2: Copyright info Page 3: Dedication Pages 4 - 31: illustration per page (each page has 1 PNG image containing 2 images to spread over 2 pages) Page 32: Empty white page But it's getting rejected by Amazon KDP with the following error: Quote Interior file 'mykidsbook.pdf' only has 17 page(s) but must have a minimum of 24. What am I doing wrong with my page setup? Currently, I have a 2-page master file, so the pages are next to each other, as you would see in a book. I think the technical word is, "spread". Looks like KDP is reading it as 1 page, and hence 17 pages. I am still a newbie to Affinity and indie-authoring but the last 2 books I practiced on, was pretty much the same setup (2 pages view) and everything was fine. Looking forward to hearing from you and thank you Quote
KarinC Posted March 9, 2024 Posted March 9, 2024 You need to export the PDF as single page views not as a spread. I don't have Publisher open for the exact choice. KDP is seeing each two page spread as a single page. Old Bruce 1 Quote
mdesigns Posted March 9, 2024 Author Posted March 9, 2024 I solved it! The issue was with the EXPORT settings > it was set to ALL SPREADS rather than ALL PAGES. Upon change, it's working! Woohoo :0 Alfred and Old Bruce 2 Quote
