In-Text Images

Let’s make your book a little more visual. We’ll place and embed up to 10 images that will appear sequentially in your e-book. You can add more than 10 images to your e-book by purchasing additional Image Insertions or by adding them yourself via your Personal Media Library.

Just follow these guidelines, and your pictures will be flawless:

• You must submit each image as a .jpg, .gif, or .tiff file.

• The height of each image must be a minimum of 600 pixels. We strongly recommend an image size of 500 x 700 pixels.

• Your interior images should have a minimum resolution of 72 ppi.

• And your images should be in RGB, not CMYK, color mode.

We're able to include color images, however only a select number of reading devices — iPad (and iPhone), NookColor and Kindle Fire — can currently display color images. On all the other devices, your images will appear in black and white.
