Look Inside the Book PDF Guidelines

Look Inside the Book PDF Guidelines provide Amazon vendors with specifications for uploading text-based PDF files. This feature allows customers to search and view pages of books on Amazon, enhancing their shopping experience. Key requirements include:

  • File Specifications: PDFs must be text-based without security measures, matching the physical book’s page order. Covers can be included as a bookmark, PDF, or JPG.
  • Image Quality: Images should be 300 dpi for optimal text searchability.
  • Submission Options: Files can be submitted as a single PDF or ZIP, or as multiple separate files (e.g., cover, spine).
  • File Naming: Use 10-digit ISBNs. Large files should be divided and named accordingly (e.g., part1of3).

These guidelines ensure seamless processing and quick availability of book previews on Amazon.
