      @onlinebusiness.simplified  28 дней назад +2

      @debramattison3467 Hey Debra, thanks for watching and commenting! When uploading it on Amazon, the cover is uploaded separately. That cover is what people will see when they browse Amazon. If you want the cover shown in the Kindle preview, you have to add that page to the manuscript you created in canva. You could just select everything on the cover design you created, add a page to your design in Canva then export it again as a PDF and that cover should then show up in the previewer. Let me know how that turns out for you.

Pick 3to5 topics, turn on a voice recorder and talk about anything you know on those topics doesn't have to be long. 2. Transcribe those. Use grammarly and Hemingway app to improve what you wrote. 3. Use this video to put it together and put it on Amazon if you want.

    Sir if we publish book then what about copyright of the that book & how we get?

    • @onlinebusiness.simplified
      @onlinebusiness.simplified  18 дней назад

      When you publish with Amazon that's an official.copyright because it has a date of publication, the content inside and how many pages, and an IBSN number. You can sue with this proof. But to get it, use form TX at the U.S. copyright office. It's online and I think it's $45. Its U.S. copyright office of Congress, that's what youre looking for. But you're protected when you release on Amazon

    What size font do you normally use if creating the ebook in Canva? I first started using Google Docs with Arial, 12 font but when I brought it into Canva it looked much smaller.

    • @onlinebusiness.simplified
      @onlinebusiness.simplified  28 дней назад +1

      @frequencyvibes thanks for commenting and watching! It is smaller in Canva. I use 21 mostly for paragraph or body text. And headlines or quotes might be double that (48). Subheadings probably 28. If you're going to do a pdf, just download it and look over it. If it looks good to you in your computer, also open it up on a mobile device. However it looks there is how it will look when people download it. So if you like the way it looks, it should be good. The sizes can vary, but it's mostly what I use. If you want an example download my book Digital Marketing Simplified to see these sizes in action here: mailchi.mp/17f83cfb4eda/dmsimplified

    I already tried to do this a couple of days ago before seeing your video. I spent a few hours trying to work out how to format and upload it. The book has become blocked; they say it's a quality issue, and I need reflowable text. Did you make your pdf into a docx file or kpf first? thanks

    • @onlinebusiness.simplified
      @onlinebusiness.simplified  3 месяца назад +3

      Hey Denise thanks for the question and thanks for watching!! I used a *PDF straight from Canva* , then I opened up the Kindle Create tool, uploaded the PDF to Kindle Create and finished it from there. I exported that as a kpf file and I had no issues. One time though I did forget the option that says "preserve links" and I ended up having to just delete and start over. If they said it needs to be reflowable, then you need to upload your PDF back into the Kindle Create tool, hit create new, then the blue/green Choose button. There are 3 options to the left. Reflowable, Comics, and Print Replica. Its the top one on the left. Choose Reflowable. I used Print Replica because I had pictures and stuff I didn't want changed. I wanted it exactly how I'd created it. When you first open the tool up, just make a new one, hit continue then click reflowable first. Then hit continue and finish entering the details of your book. Export it again and reupload the manuscript with that .kpf file. Let me know what happens.

      @denisedeakins4828 you're welcome and my pleasure. You can flatten it and yes that will work. But if you still run into problems then just download it from canva as a pdf for print without flattening it so it's still high quality, then do as I did and choose print replica. That's if the other way I suggested doesn't work.

      @jazleen5743 I think you meant destroyed, I'm not sure but, if you're images messed up, it would be good to go back into the Kindle create tool and use the print replica option. It will keep all your stuff EXACTLY how you have it. Maybe you chose another option. Try that and let me know. Then re-upload it to KDP. There are 3 options i forget what the other 2 are but When I create it I crop and make stuff just like I want to see it in Canva, then I use print replica just so that if theres a mistake, at least it's my mistake.i don't like it moving stuff around to satisfy some format.

      @annaintili1777 thanks for the question. I do not use anything for plagiarism. I find that hasn't been an issue at all. I do have people sharing some of my free stuff with people without opting in but it ends up just bringing more people to my stuff anyway. And as much content as I try to put out, people are often too lazy to rip you off. With AI it isn't a big a deal. I use CHATGPT and Claude to come up with topics and ideas or to rewrite ideas to be better but I produce the content original myself. Im not sure if that's what you meant by AI generated. Ive never had a problem coming up with topics. AI just helps with that process.
