Hey!!! My coloring has been published!🎉 Thank you so much! Your videos really helped me out!!! 🥰 Smooches!
Thanks for explaining and showing it in a simple understandable way. Please can you make a video of the next steps as well? 🥰
You're welcome! I actually have a few coloring book videos on my channel. I also have a step by step coloring book course at bookbaguniversity.com.
The only video on RUclips that explained this in detail THANK YOU SO MUCH
I do the math right, and the previewer shows no errors, but amazon keeps kicking it back at me, so I'm missing something that it won't tell me about.
Awesome video. I've had my books kicked back to me from KDP for measurements so many times I can't count. This seems to be the most comprehensive and thorough video I've watched yet.
Best video I have watched. Thank you so much now I'm able to complete my book.
yay!
Thanks so much! Been looking everywhere for what you put in here!
Glad to help!
Thank you, Latoya, this was super helpful and saved me a lot of time.
Thank you for doing this video! I was having issues with my margins, and you explained it so clearly!
yay! glad it helped!
thank you! Your video helps me to format and upload my first book 🙌
wonderful! you're welcome!
OMG...this is the first tutorial that actually worked!! Thank you so much!!!!
Glad it helped!
Thanks girl! Very helpful 🙂☮️💟
Thank you. All of the needed details and easy to follow.
wonderful!
Getting ready to release my first coloring books so I am excited to use the info I learned in here to create it
Now to figure out how to convert all this to the 8.5 by 8.5 size as I am doing a square book.😅
This is a great video, clear instructions and very useful. Thank you.
All of your videos are helpful and inspirational. This is a game changer cause it takes me hours to fix margins. I’m on a roll creating. Don’t ask me who I’m selling to cuz idk yet I just know I’m having lots of fun 😅
Thank you! Glad you're having fun! xo
thanks so much. Clear, simple and to the point 👍👍👍👍
I’m into day 3 of uploading. Thank you for this. I am changing among search platforms, download formats in Canva and types in answers. I will try your template at this point!!!! I am working on a Windows based PC with current up to date everything. I have a family member who is in the industry so I am incredibly grateful for the support on that part. I do sometimes wonder if my behind the scenes IT might be a bit ahead of the curve compared to KDP which has to be mass market. I will circle back when I get this sorted.
Explained veey well. Details were spot on. This was everything i needed to know about bleed vs nobleed. Now i literally have no excuses and can start today. Thank you for sharing.
No excuses! I'm holding you to it...keep going!
This is such a great video, thank you so much!
You’re welcome!
I downloaded my ebook as pdf print to my Google drive. But kdp is saying my format is wrong. Am confused, please help me
Hey, did you get this figured? Ebook is usually in HTML format while paperback in PDF PRINT format.
Thank you
you're welcome!
Thank you :)
You're welcome!
Thanks! Can you do a video on how to do the book cover?
I have a book cover video here: ruclips.net/video/qxcdd2JrltE/видео.html and here: ruclips.net/video/XJE3Lo-F-tU/видео.html...
I also have a step by step process of me publishing a full book in this course: www.bookbaguniversity.com/products/the-book-bag-webinar
I found a cover prob it refuse more than 8.5 and its 8.625, ❤
Latoya, your tutorials are so concise and very helpful. I am a fashion artist and would like to create my own book using my own art. How do accomplish this?
Thanks! You can upload your artwork into Canva and place your images on the pages then save as a pdf file.
@@LatoyaNicoleOfficial Thanks for responding. I will utilize this info to publish my books as well.
The template you made, is it only for no bleed? I need one with bleed .
Thank you. This was very helpful information. In your opinion ; should coloring books have bleed or no bleed ? Can you also explain the blank pages ? Are they necessary ?
All of my original coloring books have no bleed but it’s really a personal preference.
The blank pages are not necessary. They are there as fillers so that when people are coloring it doesn’t bleed through on the next page…if however they use a marker it will still most likely bleed through though lol. So…there’s that.
@@LatoyaNicoleOfficial Awesome, thank you so much for replying. I’m in the process of creating my first one and your page has been very helpful✨
Great job...
But why you are not using KDP generated template?
I'm on my 27th proof submission with kdp. Hoping this is the last one 🙏
Thank you very much, it was very helpful for me! I just do not understand one thing - which px size should have an image for a 8.3 x 11.7 book?
Hi thanks for this video. How do you determine final number of pages in a coloring book with, say, 50 images (one image per page)? How many extra pages will we need?
Thanks for this information.
You're welcome! 😀
Just to clarify, I’ll be removing those margins set since its only a guide correct?
Thank you♥♥♥
Omg thank you ❤
are you including the black box border on the final? or deleting it from each page?
Thank You. What pages are the empty and which numbers are the coloring pages. Is it important ? looks like you have the design on the 4th page on the left side. Is that correct? I read somewhere where the design should be on the right side. Which way is better?
Did you show the settings for "with bleed" in this video ?
Question - I get the part with the sizes with bleed and no bleed. When I go into KDP it’s asking me to pick a trim size. My book on canva is 8.5x11 inches with no bleed. What am I picking for trim size on KDP? I don’t see 8.5x11 - it looks like they let you enter your trim size - do I enter 8.5x11?
Hey,
If I am not wrong; you are suggesting to keep images n text inside the square, even for using bleed.
Am I correct....
I think the things you want inside the square are the things you don't want to get cut off, regardless of bleed or no bleed. Doing bleed makes Amazon not give you a white outline, and spread the colours to the end of the paper. So you can have things outside the square that can be backgrounds, but any vital word or image should be inside the square to not risk getting lost.
Will the even pages be the back?
Please what is the right choice for downloading
Thank you so much for your tutorial and the template you are a wealth of knowledge.🫶🏽🫶🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Thank you! & thanks for watching! xo
Do you need to change the size of the cover when you do this?
I know you shared the link with me to watch this video ive watched it before ive watched alot if your videos i have the interior pages down its the front and back cover thats giving me the issue when it loads its in the center and there is no way for me to drag it over
I just want to clarify. You are adding the blank page in between because amazon does front and back pages and that will make the back of the coloring page blank, correct? Or is it to actually have a blank page in between each coloring page?
correct to your first question.
Great info! I purchased the template and I'm still getting the failed error message. What could I be doing wrong?
@@genevapotts9729 Hi. Email me a screen shot of what the error message is saying.
@@LatoyaNicoleOfficial Hey! I figured out what I was doing wrong and I was able to get my coloring book submitted for review. Thank you so much for reaching out! Have a great day! Smooches!
Thanks for the video! But wont we need our file to be *.docx or *.epub to upload to Amazon KDP?
PDF file as this is for a coloring book.
@@LatoyaNicoleOfficial Thanks
I thought the books with bleeds have no border. You created a book with bleed and then added a border. I thought that at the beginning you showed that pages with bleed extend to the edge of the page. Please advise.
Okay, let me explain it a bit better. Bleed means the colors or images go all the way to the edge of the page, without stopping. It's like they're spilling over a little bit.
But sometimes, even if a book has bleed, you might still want to add a border, and that's fine! Adding a border means putting a frame around the edge of the page, kind of like putting a frame around a picture on the wall. So, even though the colors or images still go all the way to the edge of the page, you can still have a border around them if you want.
Thanku
Does anyone have ready templates in canv for KDP Amazon 8.5x 11 size with bleed, I can't figure it out, maybe someone could send me how to set it up for myself? I would appreciate your help with this topic.
When I use Canva the quality is always blurry. I attempted my own art and the AI images generated. No luck. You can tell the pixels are low quality.
Sorry to hear that it’s not working for you. Have you attempted researching an artist whose working is not blurry and hiring them?
Dear Latoya, is there a standart size for coloring books sold on amazon (A4?)??
8.5 x 11
@@LatoyaNicoleOfficial Thanks a lot Latoya! I am assuming the A4 would work just fine, right? Cheers :)
Thanks so much for your info! You helped me so much gal!
