Paperback Covers for IngramSpark

IngramSpark Print Covers

Many authors utilize both Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) and IngramSpark to maximize their distribution and sales opportunities. KDP offers competitive pricing and high royalties within Amazon’s marketplace, while IngramSpark facilitates access to physical bookstores and non-Amazon retailers, which often prefer sourcing outside of Amazon. This dual-platform strategy enables authors to leverage Amazon’s vast customer base through KDP and expand their reach via IngramSpark’s broader distribution network, enhancing visibility and sales potential.

How to Order an IngramSpark Cover Version

IngramSpark covers have different dimensions than KDP and require a unique template with specific proportions. To create your cover:

  • Contact Me: Reach out via email at melody@bookcoversbymelody.com to discuss your project needs.
  • Provide ISBN: Supply the International Standard Book Number (ISBN) for your book, as it’s required to generate a template from IngramSpark.
  • Select Trim Size: Choose an appropriate trim size for your fiction book. Popular options include 5.5″ x 8.5″ and 6″ x 9″.
  • Choose Paper and Finish: Decide between white or cream paper and select either a matte or gloss finish for your cover. Most fiction books in fantasy, mystery and romance genres use gloss as the colors tend to be brighter.

A double-page Ingramspark PDF cover is priced at $75 for creating a new cover from an existing ebook file and $50 for converting an existing KDP print file to meet IngramSpark’s specifications.
