RE: Self-Publishing with ProWebWriter on a $0 Budget - Part 3 - Uploading to Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) Platform

Thanks for this informative post. I have a question though. I downloaded my Google doc as a Word file, but it all became messed up in terms of formatting. Do you format the Word file, or do you upload as it is?

Sort:  

Hmm, I've never had this problem. If things are moving around and not staying where you put them, try downloading as a PDF instead.

You should only have to format once.

Also worthy of note, don't use the Tab key. It just doesn't work with Kindle.

The only formatting you really need is a Page Break between your chapters and other pages:

Title Page [Page Break] Dedication [Page Break] Foreword [Page Break]Chapter 1 [Page Break] Chapter 2....and so on.

Thanks for the reply.

I did the page break thing and it helped a lot. However, some of the lines (on pages without page breaks) get pushed to the next page although it shows up okay on the Word document. I only inserted page breaks in between chapters.

In any case, it's much better now. Thanks!
