Book Trim Sizes in Inches for KDP and IngramSpark

I have assembled a handy single-sheet reference to help you choose the right trim size for your book.  This is doubly helpful if you want to use the same file for KDP and IngramSpark.

All good design (whether that is cover design, interior formatting, or illustrations) requires the designer to know the parameters they are designing in. Before deciding on your trim size, make sure it has all of the options that you want.

Knowing all of these details is what makes a professional worth the investment. Time is our greatest asset, and knowledge is power. A professional designer saves you time by implementing the knowledge she has gained over the years.

Book designing is my full-time business, not my side hustle. I have worked with over 500 authors and presses on a variety of publishing projects. I would love to speak with you about your publishing project.

Sometimes I just keep sitting in the bathtub even Sometimes I just keep sitting in the bathtub even after all the water has drained. By the time I actually drain the water, it has already reached room temp anyway. Hot baths have always been my safe space, lol, and leaving the tub brings a finality of self-care that I am not ready to give up most days, even if it means sitting in my no-longer-hot-bath, recently-drained tub. I eat ice cream here. I TikTok here. I relax here. #selfcare #businessowner #bookdesigner #hotbath #bathwater
I loved working on "The Sum of Her Love" for Maril I loved working on "The Sum of Her Love" for Marilynne Infantino. After living on this earth for 43 years, I have learned so much about the stickiness of life. But there is beauty there too. Read "The Sum of Her Love" if you like a story based on life!
