How to make a coloring book for Amazon KDP

Writer.BookScena brings it together: pick the trim (8.5×11 or square 8.5×8.5), place your designs or use the stock library, switch on coloring mode, and export a 300 DPI, single-sided, bleed PDF ready to upload.

What you can export

  • KDP-ready interior PDF: 300 DPI, bleed and even page count.
  • Paperback cover with a spine width from the page count.

You can upload your own artwork or use the built-in image library with commercially usable content.

Do I need Canva or Photoshop?

No. Place the images, apply coloring mode and export the KDP-ready PDF from the browser.
