Coming October 2020: File Ingestion Requirement As part of our ongoing efforts to improve the digital reading experience for our customers, we wanted to share with you that starting October 27, 2020 we will be updating eBook file conversion requirements for large tables and include more checks to ensure eBook manuscripts are formatted correctly. This will allow more books to support Enhanced Typesettingour advanced typographical and layout features that offer customers a better reading experience. Most books already publish with Enhanced Typesetting support and customers have come to expect this experience with every title. - For titles already available on Kindle, no action is needed. Your eBooks will continue to be available to customers as they are today. - For new or resubmitted titles, if you submit a file and it does not meet the new requirements, the actions to fix will now be available for you on your KDP Bookshelf after you upload your manuscript and cover. You may also use Kindle Previewer (KPR) version 3.39 or higher to review your files prior to publication. View the Conversion Log (found in the View Menu in KPR) to find steps to fix any errors related to enhanced typesetting.
