    I always hear bad things about Ingramspark, that's why I scoff every time someone recommends them. But did B&N ever solve their issue? If so, they might be worth getting then.

    I write pamplets in 4 X 6 size, facing pages. I want to create booklets to self print on my HP ColorLaser Jet printer. I try and do this in Affinity Publisher When I try to get the booklet to create I get a print workflow error. Any ideas there. I also want to learn how to setup ebooks. Any help appreciated. This is for my congregation use not trying to make my first Million, Hi.

    Thank-you so much! My wife was going nuts trying to format her novel and this really helped. I watched it and was able to teach her these important things: - it's not just her, MS Word has a mind of it's own and probably too many controls for things - Make each chapter a new section (continuous) - Make it not continuous from previous section - when pages are screwed up edit page number to count from beginning of chapters - IT"S NOT HER, WORD IS SCREWED UP! Hers has the additional complexity of being in three parts, with a page saying "Part X" that is NOT counted a page. But we got through that by using the above steps, making those Part # pages a new section, not continuous and deleting the page number and starting the next chapter with the desired page number. Whew!!!

    This video is awesome! I unlinked my first two pages of the first chapter as well (not the chapter page) and re-typed the header and footer information to fix that numbering issue you had. Doing that linked up the numbers correctly throughout the whole document.

    The color issue is from your file and color space differences on your monitor. This is why its super important, when doing any design work, to use a color collaborated monitor and to ensure that your output file is in the correct color space.

    Thanks for showing this to us. KDP uses a 55 lb paper, so that's pretty nice, and generally, their books seem of good quality. I have noticed, though, a good bit of warpage. Not sure why this is, but I've heard others note it as well; there's often a wave present when looking at the book edge-on from the right side, and my limited experience with hardcover was that the cover was somewhat warped as well. I'd be interested to know what you think of the durability of the spine and binding. Does it stand up to heavy use, and do the pages stay put? I almost wish we didn't have the glossy/matte option as sometimes I just can't choose. But, I'd like to see some other options, like a variety of paper weights, sewn binding for hardcovers, durable buckram cover (also for hardcovers), spiral bound (good for uses in which you want the book to lie flat during use, like notebooks, cookbooks, etc.), and staples (for low page count things like comics and small mags). Good to know that KDP has the best color. I wonder why this can be so variable. What I've noticed is that if you're working in a layout program, like Canva for instance, once you see the finished downloaded product as a PDF in Adobe programs, the color tone is starkly different. It would be nice if this could be more standardized from platform to platform, so we know what we're getting. I'd like to hear more about your experience with KDP matte. Will you never order it? I've also noticed some inconsistency--the areas of difference in finish you referred to--in the hardcover, but otherwise it seems pretty good. What did you mean about the finish coming off if you rubbed it? I've experienced a kind of rubbery feeling when touching the surface when the book is new and unhandled, but I haven't yet spent enough time with one printed this way to know if there's an issue with ink fastness. Anyway, congratulations on publishing your book, and all the best to you in your writing! Hope Vader's doing well.

    The Page Number preview is different when I double-click back to the manuscript. It says '71' when I edit, but then it says '43'. How do I fix that?

    How do you make the other chapter pages exempt from having headers? I deselected 'Link to Previous' and 'Different First Pages' is selected, but the chapter pages are still linked to the other pages; before and after.
