BookReady → Draft2Digital won't accept your PDF
KDP's error messages are vague and unhelpful. BookReady checks your PDF against Draft2Digital's exact specifications, and because KDP and IngramSpark have different requirements, you can scan for both simultaneously.
What BookReady checks
18 checks. Platform-specific. Auto-fix where possible.
✓
Font embedding
KDP substitutes unembedded fonts silently. You won't notice until your book prints wrong.
✓
Image resolution (300 DPI)
KDP requires 300 DPI minimum. BookReady finds affected pages with exact DPI values.
✓
Bleed margins (0.125")
Wrong bleed causes KDP to crop your content. BookReady auto-corrects the TrimBox.
✓
Page count (even/odd)
KDP requires even page counts. BookReady flags odd counts with exact fix instructions.
✓
Active hyperlinks
KDP flags clickable links in print files. BookReady auto-strips all link annotations.
✓
Color mode
RGB images in B&W interiors trigger color print rates. BookReady flags the exact pages.
