    I think I missed something

    Discussion in 'Print on Demand' started by SapereAude, Apr 30, 2021.

    In the course of reading and responding to comments in multiple threads started by member 345897 regarding publishing through multiple P-O-D services, I went back and looked at what I have done for the two books I came out with this year, and I think I have overlooked something. I did both books in both print-on-demand and Kindle e-book through Amazon KDP. I wanted to cover the Nook platform, so I then issued .EPUB versions of each book through Barnes & Noble Press.

    And then I read a post by big soft moose that mentioned Direct2Digital, so I signed up with D2D and put e-book versions of both books on there.

    What I have just realized is that I have NOT put a print edition anywhere other than Amazon. I used my own ISBN for each book, so there appears to be no reason why I can't go back now and upload it to Barnes & Noble Press, or to IngramSpark.

    Right? Is there any reason why I can't or shouldn't do that?

    no problem with launching print later ... note that page thickness differs between KDP and IS so you will need a new cover file to take into account the variation in spine thickness

    I also found that Barnes & Noble Press defaults to putting their barcode on the back cover, so an existing cover that includes the bar code has to be edited to remove it.
