Summary

Each template is a styled file at a standard trim size with chapter openers, running heads and front matter set up; you paste in your text, apply styles, and export the print PDF and EPUB from your own software. The store says the sizes are compliant with KDP and other POD printers, but the output is only as good as your export: Word users need Calibre or KDP's own DOCX conversion for the ebook. Licenses are per book, and the same team runs a separate AI-based done-for-you service, BookDesigner.ai.
