Items related to Format YOUR Print Book with Createspace
KDP Print: This book was originally written about and published through Createspace. Since then, Createspace has been replaced by KDP Print. The author has migrated his paperback books to the new KDP Print platform and can confirm that the layout guidance in the book applies equally well to KDP Print as it did to Createspace, and always has done for Lulu.
2nd Edition: EXTENDED! REVISED! UPDATED!
Publishing a print book with KDP Print, Createspace or Lulu is fairly easy. But unless you know how to lay out a book, AND how to achieve the results you want in your word processor, the result won't do your writing justice. In this guide, I will show you how to format your book's interior:
* What you need to know about book layout and typesetting to get professional results.
* How to use Microsoft Word 2007, 2008, 2010, 2011 & 2013 to achieve those results (with notes for Word 2003 users)
* eBook tips: how to format your manuscript in Word so you can move easily between print, Kindle, ePUB, and Smashwords editions. (Note: this is not a comprehensive guide to building eBooks).
*NEW! A workflow for publishing a book through Createspace. Follow the workflow and use the cross-references to find the detailed discussion later in the book for each step.
*NEW! Answers to the questions about paperback publishing that I am often asked by my book-formatting clients, such as: how to pick the right trim size, how to set pricing, what kind of ISBN you should use, and how to link print and kindle editions on Amazon.
*NEW! The correct way to use paragraph and page breaks in Word.
*NEW! Advanced topics: add that final level of polish with subjects such as kerning & OpenType settings, using Unicode code points in paperbacks and eBooks, dot gain & color spaces, faux glyphs and how to avoid them, the perils of transferring Word files between Mac & Windows, and how to republish your back catalog.
*NEW! Many more screenshots and diagrams (now 76). All are reproduced in the paperback and eBook editions of this book, and are also available from the book’s website.
A note for Mac users. Screenshots are taken from Windows editions of Word, and references made to any significant Mac differences (specifically: keyboard shortcut differences, selecting fonts, and the PDF print capability built into OS X). While I have worked with Mac users to research the second edition, in the interest of honesty I declare that although I have laid out dozens of paperback books using Windows editions of Word, I have not produced any using a Mac. Hence there is a Windows-first bias to the text and images.
