Today, I will share the troubleshooting process for error messages when publishing a book through KDP publishing service.

​After you finish publishing with KDP, first submit the e-book, then create and submit the paperback, you can receive the message below within 2-3 days.

​In this case, you will enter your editing account for KDP and enter setup mode for the book.

​And to edit the content, first check what the problem is using the previewer.

When you see your book through Launch Preview, It must be no error message in the left side with hot pink mark above.

​Also, be aware that the red line below is the part where it is cut out, so no important images or text should be placed outside this red line.

​I received an email from Amazon telling me to check page 26 of my book, revise it, and publish it. For exact checking your fixed area, you can dowload your PDF proof, where it has on the right side of your previewer.

Here is a PDF proof window.

​Of course, an error message may appear because the picture at the bottom is cut off, but in some cases, the problem is the empty space directly above. You might think that the picture below is cut off because of the empty space.

While Amazon does provide editorial reviews for some products, it's essential to clarify that there is a distinction between customer reviews and editorial reviews on the platform.

1. Customer Reviews:
   
   • These are reviews written by individuals who have purchased and used the product.
   • Anyone with an Amazon account can write a customer review.
   • Customer reviews provide insights into the personal experiences of users with the product.
2. Editorial Reviews:
   
   • These are typically written by professional reviewers, experts, or individuals with authority in a specific field.
   • Editorial reviews are often curated by Amazon's editorial team or sourced from reputable sources.
   • For books, these sources may include book review sites, prominent authors, newspapers, or magazines.
   • Editorial reviews aim to provide a more critical and expert perspective on the product.

For books specifically, editorial reviews may come from established literary critics, well-known authors, or reputable book review publications. These reviews can offer potential buyers additional context and insights into the quality and value of the book beyond the perspectives of individual customers.
It's important to note that not all products on Amazon have editorial reviews, and their presence may vary depending on the type of product and its popularity. Customers often find a combination of customer reviews and editorial reviews helpful when making purchasing decisions. 

Amazon KDP allows you to add book reviews from these experts.

​To do this, first go to the marketing menu in your KDP publishing site account. Then go to the author page and select the book you want to add an editor to.

And then click the Add review button like below: 

​In my case, I included a book review from a professor who edited and helped me write my first book.
