KDP 6x9 Paperback Cover

I’m ready to publish a non-fiction paperback on Amazon KDP and need a polished cover that meets the 6" × 9" print template. You’ll be working with a high-resolution photo I’ll supply as the main visual; the goal is to integrate this image seamlessly with the title, my name, and the usual spine and back-cover text once I send them over.

I’m after a clean, professional layout that stays sharp at thumbnail size and passes the KDP preview the first time. Familiarity with Adobe InDesign, Photoshop, or Affinity Publisher—as well as KDP’s bleed, margin, and barcode requirements—is essential.

Deliverables
• Press-ready PDF (front, spine, back in one file, CMYK, 300 dpi, correct bleed)
• Editable source file
• High-resolution JPG for online use

Acceptance criteria
• No errors in KDP’s preview tool
• Legible typography at both full and thumbnail sizes
• Color and trim aligned with the provided template

I’ll give quick feedback and expect two rounds of revisions to reach final approval. Let me know your timeframe and show me similar non-fiction covers you’ve completed, and we can get started right away.
