Can you use KDP and IngramSpark?
Both KDP and IngramSpark require a high resolution PDF file for upload to create your paperback book. While it’s true you can upload word documents, we don’t recommend it. It’s always best practice to provide a PDF for print books. The same interior file can be used for both KDP and IngramSpark.
