This the most confusing yet awesome video I’ve seen. Thank you. I totally understand your confusion it’s so cool.

This is the best video I’ve seen about formatting a book for print on YT. You make the task look easy.

Thank you for making this so simple to follow step by step! I have literally been spending all week spending money on how to fix my format! You just helped me for free! Thank you! God bless! ☺️

Great formatting video. Why didn’t you use styles? All of the stuff that you’re doing manually, you can do globally with a simple click of the button and your don’t have to worry about the same as feature in the headers. Use the header 1 feature in styles to set up your chapter titles so that you can use them in the table of contents...including spacing, font size, and location...with just one click. There are plenty of other one click features worth exploring in styles. Just a thought.

So am I right in understanding, you didn't need to change the template that KDP provide to use them in Ingram Spark? I thought Ingram Spark had a different size format? (Thanks for this by the way, you make it so straight forward).

I also format my interiors in Word and am wondering how you create your PDF?
Are you familiar with Affinity Publisher at all?

I am doing a 6x9 poetry book with a 135 pages. Not sure how much gutter space I should put.

Very helpful. Would I use this same format for a Barnes and Noble book?

[enlightened_orca]

Hello! Does anyone know of a setting or way to remove hyphenated wordbreaks from book chapters without manually going through the chapters and adding extra spaces at the end of the previous line?

[detanajala]

Instead of book marking, can we format chapter headings as Heading 1 and then modify heading 1 to our taste?

[crystalmt]

Is it necessary to have section breaks or will page breaks suffice?

Clicking too fast. Not explaining well. Not a computer person.
