I have a 150-page Word manuscript that now needs to look and behave like a finished book inside Amazon’s ecosystem. The goal is simple: deliver three press-ready formats that KDP will accept on the first upload— • 6 × 9 in. paperback PDF • 8.5 × 8.5 in. hardcover PDF • Reflowable Kindle file (EPUB/KPF) Style expectations are already defined as “KDP ready for publication on Amazon,” so I’m looking for someone who knows the current KDP trim-size specs, margin tables, bleed settings, and font embedding rules rather than someone who needs creative direction. Essential elements to build in: a clickable table of contents, running headers and footers that show book title/author, consistent pagination, and correct placement of all images or illustrations at 300 dpi. If you spot any layout issues—widows, orphans, hyphen ladders—I expect those cleaned up as part of the process. Some minor editing of content towards consistent presentation of the case studies information and the style of the book is part of the process. Final deliverables must open without warnings in Kindle Previewer and pass KDP’s pre-press checker for both print trims. If you can turn this around quickly and supply source files alongside the PDFs/EPUB, let’s get started.

Greetings, I understand you need a 150-page Word manuscript formatted for KDP in three versions: 6x9 paperback PDF, 8.5x8.5 hardcover PDF, and reflowable Kindle EPUB. You need clickable table of contents, running headers and footers, consistent pagination, 300 DPI images, cleaned widows and orphans, and minor content editing for consistent case study presentation. Deliverables must pass Kindle Previewer and KDP pre-press checks. Here is how I will work: I will import your Word manuscript into professional book layout software (Adobe InDesign or Atticus). I will set up two print documents with correct trim, bleed, margins, and gutter for 6x9 and 8.5x8.5. I will add running headers, footers, page numbers, and a clickable TOC. I will optimize all images to 300 DPI. I will fix widows, orphans, and hyphen ladders. I will edit case study formatting for consistency across chapters. I will export print PDFs and a reflowable EPUB. I will test both in Kindle Previewer and KDP pre-press. I have formatted many KDP books. I am ready to begin as soon as you share your Word manuscript and any cover file. Thanks, Revival
