What it fixes

  • A cover template based on the wrong trim size or page count.
  • A spine that no longer fits after the interior changes.
  • Important text outside the safe area, or a barcode area in the wrong place.
  • Bleed that is missing, uneven or added where it is not required.
  • A cover that worked on KDP but is rejected by IngramSpark or Draft2Digital.

This Micro Fix helps you check the measurements and rebuild the cover from the correct specifications for the service you are using.
