Formatting problems PublishPro fixes automatically

"What am I doing wrong?"

Same question. Every group. Every day.

You followed the instructions exactly. KDP rejected it anyway. The reason isn't what you think and PublishPro fixes it automatically.

Incorrect Margins & Gutter

"Why does my correctly-sized file keep getting rejected?"

Margins and gutter aren't fixed numbers, they change with your page count. Most authors set them once and never update them. PublishPro recalculates both automatically from your trim size and page count.

Broken Chapter Structure

"Why do my chapters look wrong after I export?"

Unstructured manuscripts produce unstructured books. PublishPro detects every chapter, front matter, and back matter section automatically and applies consistent formatting across all of them.

Inconsistent Chapter Spacing & Fonts

"Why does my book look different on page 50 than page 5?"

Fonts and spacing drift across long manuscripts especially when edited over months. PublishPro locks typography consistency across your entire interior. Page 1 looks like page 300.

Low-Quality Images

"Why do my images look blurry in print?"

Screen resolution and print resolution are not the same. An image that looks sharp on your laptop prints blurry at 72 DPI. PublishPro checks every image against 300 DPI print requirements automatically, before export, not after rejection.

Cover formatting

KDP rejected your cover?

Your interior passed. Your cover didn't. The reasons aren't always obvious and PublishPro catches them before you upload.

"Why does my spine text keep getting flagged?"

Sara John

Spine text too close to the edge

KDP requires 0.0625" of clear space around spine text. Too close and it wraps onto your front or back cover.
PublishPro checks your spine margins automatically, before export.

"Why does KDP say my cover and manuscript don't match?"

Fredrick Mark

Cover Doesn't Match Your Manuscript

Your cover dimensions must align with your interior's trim size and page count, including spine width.Update one without the other and KDP flags it.
PublishPro auto size both together, every time.

"Why does my cover look pixelated after upload?"

Henry Daniel

Low-Resolution Cover Images

A cover that looks sharp on screen can print blurry if it's below 300 DPI.
PublishPro auto checks your cover resolution before export, not after rejection.
