Paper Tiger | Formatting my children's book for IngramSpark and KDP using Scribus | Livestream Highlights @PaperTigerProductions | Uploaded August 2021 | Updated October 2024, 54 minutes ago.
Watch me format my children's picture book to comply with IngramSpark's file creation guide from start to finish using Scribus, an open source alternative to Adobe InDesign.
In this highlights video of my livestream, I cover:
- how to export your interior art files from Procreate
- how to layout your interior art if you have created them as double page spreads
- my entire work flow for formatting a kids' picture book in Scribus
It took me four hours to format the interior of my kids' picture book using Scribus. Somewhere out there, a book designer is cringing at everything I'm doing on screen (if that's you, let me know in the comments what I'm getting wrong because I would love to hear from you!).

// REGULAR "GET STUFF DONE!" LIVESTREAM EVERY WEEK
Writing the book was hard. Revising is harder and marketing is the hardest of all. That's why I've decided to start streaming every Tuesday 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM AEST so I'll actually get stuff done. BYO work or just come hang out and chat with me while I do self-published author stuff. Check out my channel page for the next livestream: → youtube.com/channel/UC5KfSLtFfjCDGRuIxBX5ifg
