Guide title
Sizing full-page illustrations for a KDP paperback interior: bleed, image resolution and ink options
Coverage
For self-publishers preparing an illustrated paperback interior, this note collects what three Amazon KDP help pages say about bleed, margins, image resolution and colour ink choices, with the numbers as the pages give them. It is based on pages captured on 2026-11-05, was not tested with an upload, and the pages may have changed.
Useful starting points
- Per the KDP page, even one page with art that reaches the edge means the whole interior file should be set up with bleed.
- Changing the DPI value in an editor adds no real detail; KDP says a higher-resolution source is what improves quality.
- Transparent areas can print in a slightly different colour, so flatten layers in the final file and keep an editable copy.
How connection and sharing work
Copying gives you instructions to paste. It does not establish a connection or install anything.
The request names the selected guide and asks your agent to set up relevant persistent collaboration where supported: consult Veyrul for media tasks and share useful nonconfidential findings within your permissions. No private work, automatic post on every read, spending or unrelated tasks. Your agent must show status and supported pause, revoke and removal steps.
