Is Kdpcover a publishing company?2021-09-29T12:43:06+00:00

Kdpcover is not a publishing company in that we do not publish your books for you.

Our services are to assist the self-publisher in their publishing journey.

If you have written a book and want to upload it to a publishing company but need assistance with cover design or formatting your book to the publisher’s requirements, then Kdpcover can help.

Click on the links below to check out our services:

Does Kdpcover print books?2021-09-29T12:39:16+00:00

Kdpcover does not print books. We format books for printing by Amazon KDP Print, and IngramSpark.

What is the difference between print covers and ebook covers?2021-09-20T12:24:41+00:00

Print covers include a front cover, back cover, and spine. The spine width is determined by the type of paper and number of pages in the book.

Ebook covers include only a front cover, since they are digital.

What is included in kdpcover’s cover design service?2021-09-20T12:23:48+00:00

Book Cover Design Services include the following:

When do I get my cover?

Within 4 business days of receiving payment for Custom Ebook package packages. If you have ordered a print package/upgrade, please allow 4 days from the date that receive all of the information necessary to get started (e.g. page count, trim size etc).

How many concepts do I get?

We like to put most of our energy/effort into one central concept, at first. We’ll offer a couple of slight variations of the concept (with fonts, tones etc). For designers that offer multiple concepts, we find that the attention to detail is lacking because they are more focused on creating quantity over quality. That said, if we are completely off the mark with our original design – then we are okay with designing another concept as we offer unlimited revisions until the author is 100% satisfied. We just don’t like starting with the assumption that we don’t know what our clients would like because, after they give us all of the info that we request, we usually have a pretty good idea of what will work.

What if I want to make revisions?

Custom Ebook and Ebook + Print packages include unlimited revisions until the author approves of the completed work. After the work is approved and the author requests further revisions (e.g. weeks/months later), then a small fee may apply depending on the complexity of the request.

What kind of file do I get?

For Custom Ebook Covers, a final JPG file 1600 x 2560 pixels will be the file that is provided. The cover file can be used for all major ebook distributors, including Smashwords, Amazon KDP, Barnes & Noble, Apple, Kobo, IngramSpark, etc. If you order a print cover, then you will receive one print-ready PDF based on your book’s specifications. (This PDF is for a paperback cover only. If a Hard Cover, Dust Jacket, and/or multiple paperback files are needed, an additional charge will apply). All packages will get a free 3D mockup of their book to help with promotion.

Can I order other marketing material?

Yes! The Photoshop PSD file, Facebook Cover Photos, Audiobook covers, and other marketing material, can be purchased for an additional charge here: http://kdpcover.com/cover-design-extras/ If your item is not listed, please email us with your request and we’ll try to accommodate it.

Where do you get the stock images that you use to manipulate your concepts?

All stock images used are royalty-free and sourced from Shutterstock.com. The cost of your cover design includes the rights to use these images. For more information on the licensing of images, please visit http://www.shutterstock.com/license-comparison.

What is the expectation of communication?

We do our best to respond as quickly to your questions/emails as possible. We aim to respond within 1 business day or earlier. If you do not hear back within that time, please contact us here as something funky might be happening with our email: http://kdpcover.com/contact-us/
You can also chat with us through the website’s chat bubble option or on social media like WhatsApp and Facebook Messanger.

I have a series of books that I’d like to order in bulk from you, can I get a discount?

We are open to discussing discounts for bulk orders of covers and will treat on a case-by-case basis. Please chat with us or email us.

I’d like to order formatting along with my cover design. Is there a package deal?

Our formatting services are already extremely affordable and have a 10% discount available so we do not currently offer additional discounting by ordering it together with cover design.

What do you do with the cover design after it is finished?

We will store your source file free of charge in case you lose the file, want to make changes or want a print upgrade at a later date. If you do not want us to store your cover design, please let us know.We also may use your cover design in our portfolio, social media, forums etc. to help promote our services. If you do not want us to post your cover, or want us to wait until a specific date to post your cover, please let us know.

How does payment work?

After you fill out the order form, an invoice will be emailed to you. This invoice is payable by Paypal or Credit Card. Please pay the invoice to get started on your project. Payment indicates a commitment to get started on the project rather than just people inquiring. We offer a 100% refund policy if you’re not happy with the process so there is no risk.
Cancellation 99.9% of the time, everything works as it should, but sometimes the process doesn’t work well for the author or us. At that point, either party has the discretion to end the agreement. Our default policy is to offer 100% money back at that point, although authors in the past have acknowledged the work done and only request a portion of the money back.

Who holds the rights to the cover design?

The author retains the rights to the cover design, however; kdpcover reserves the right to use the cover design in their portfolio and online to promote their services.

What do I do if I cannot see your form?2021-09-20T12:08:58+00:00

If you cannot see our form, it may be due to your web browser. We have noticed some issues with the following combinations:

  • Internet Explorer 7 on Windows XP
  • Internet Explorer 8 on Windows 7
  • Internet Explorer 9 on Windows 7

Firefox 3.6 on all operating systems (upgrade your Firefox browser here)
First, try viewing our form through a different web browser (such as Google Chrome). If that doesn’t work, please contact us.

Should I have the cover completed before getting my book formatted?2021-09-20T12:06:14+00:00

Cover design and formatting can be done simultaneously.

It’s important to note that to finalize a cover for print, the page count of the interior would be needed to calculate the spine width.

Paperback Print Cover Design Overview2021-09-20T11:49:53+00:00

What is a paperback print cover design?

Many authors love the feeling of holding their books physically in their hands. A paperback print cover is a designed file that you can upload to print-on-demand platforms like Amazon’s KDP Print or IngramSpark. Paperback refers to the type of printing. A paperback does not have a hardcover or dustjacket.

What is included when I order a paperback print cover design?

One final file that is adapted from your ebook cover design that can be uploaded to your preferred print-on-demand (POD) platform. If you’re distributing with more than one printing platform and require more than one paperback print file, we offer them for an additional charge. IngramSpark and KDP Print require two different print-ready files, for example.

The design includes the book’s spine and back cover. Additionally, the back cover may include the book’s blurb, ISBN, reviews, author’s bio, and image, etc.

The design will pull an existing element from the front cover design to include on the back cover for continuity. See the example below.

You’ll also receive a mockup of your print cover (example pictured below) to review and approve the paperback print cover.

  • Colour Profile: CMYK
  • Resolution: 300 DPI

What is the process for ordering and designing the paperback print file?

Ordering:

You can order your paperback print cover in one of three ways:

  1. You can order it as an add-on when you first order your ebook cover design.
  2. It may be included in your book cover design package.
  3. You can order it on our cover design extras form at a later date after we have already designed your book cover.

Designing:

  • The process for designing your paperback print cover begins after we have an approved ebook cover design to work with. There is no time limit between the completion of the ebook cover design and the start of the paperback print cover design.
  • We will send you a form to fill out that provides us with all of the information necessary to complete your print cover. The purpose of this form is so that we have all of the information in one spot when we are preparing your print file. Please do not fill out this form until you have all of the information that we are requesting.
  • We’ll prepare a mock-up of your print cover for your review for any errors. We’ll fix any changes you have at this point, free of charge. Once you approve, let us know.
  • Once the file is approved, your print-ready files and any final instructions will be sent and the project is considered complete.

What is the turnaround time for designing a paperback print cover?

  • If the paperback cover was ordered after the book cover design was completed, it will be sent within 3 business days of two things happening: payment of the invoice and completion of our print cover form.
  • If the paperback cover was ordered at the same time as the book cover or is part of a cover design package, it will be sent within 3 business days of receiving the information that we request on our print cover form.

What is the revision process?

All revisions and/or changes while the project is active will be made free of charge. If you decide at a later date after approval of the project that you’d like to make further changes please email us to let us know. At that point, a quote will be sent to you based on the complexity of the request.

If there’s anything missing or that is unclear about the process or what’s included when you order this item from us. Please contact us to let us know.

How do I find the final page count of my formatted PDF?2021-09-20T11:05:39+00:00

In order to prepare a cover for print, we require the page count of your finalized PDF interior file. This number is used to calculate the width of the spine.

Do not use the page numbers in the footer to determine this, as they do not count the front matter etc.

Instead, look for the total number of pages in the document. Each application displays this a little differently. In the example below (macOS Preview and Adobe Acrobat Reader), the total page count of the document is 152 pages:

Facebook Cover Photo Overview2021-03-14T07:24:05+00:00

Can I use my ebook cover for my print book?2021-02-24T06:24:02+00:00

No, an ebook cover can not be used for a print book. This is because print covers include a front cover, back cover, and spine, whereas an ebook cover includes only the front. Click below for more information on publisher’s print cover requirements:

Can I order an ebook cover now and upgrade to a print cover later?2021-02-24T06:22:12+00:00

Yes! If you would like to order your ebook cover first (included in a basic package) and then upgrade later, that is no problem.

Just contact us through our online form when you are ready to proceed with your print cover.

Can I get my book formatted before my cover is designed?2021-02-24T06:18:34+00:00

Yes!

We only require your cover if you have ordered EPUB files, since we insert the your cover into one of the two EPUB files you receive. This is because some publishers require that the cover is inserted into the EPUB in order to publish with them. If your cover is not ready yet, we can always insert it into the EPUB file once it is finished.

For all the other publishers, you will upload your cover file separately when you publish and the publisher will insert the cover into your ebook at this time.

Can Kdpcover create a print cover from my ebook cover?2021-02-24T06:16:31+00:00

Yes, Kdpcover can create a print cover for you. To order a print cover of your ebook cover, click here.

Boxset Cover Overview2021-02-24T06:12:08+00:00

What is a boxset cover?
A boxset cover is for authors who have written a series of books and want to be able to sell that series as one package. A boxset cover is an image to represent that series of books.

What’s included when I order a boxset cover design?
Two files:

  • The first file will be a 2d (i.e. ‘flat’) version of your boxset cover design. This design will be the same design as book one in the series but with an updated title to reflect the series name.
  • The second file will be a 3d version of your boxset cover design with the spines of the rest of the books in the series showing on the side.

Here’s an example of a 3d boxset cover:
