The 4, 4, the 4 files that you need to self-publish your book. Okay, my name is Tyler Wagner. I'm the founder of AuthorTonight.com, and I'm gonna break down this whole self-publishing thing for you so easily that it's gonna blow your mind. Okay, so here's the 4 files that you need to self-publish your book. File number 1, you need a cover for your ebook. Comes in a JPEG file,.jpg. Okay, so just a cover. Now obviously you gotta find somebody to design it, or you can try it yourself. If you're not a designer, I highly recommend you outsource it. So Kindle cover, JPEG file. Second is you need an interior, an interior file for your Kindle. So that is an EPUB,.epub. Or a.mobi file. Okay, so that's the interior, and that has to be formatted into those formats that I just mentioned. Now, for your paperback, you're already— those two files, you're already good for Kindle and for ebooks and other stores. Done. For paperback, you need— it's a specific type of PDF for the COVID So it's a cover PDF based off of the length and thickness of the interior. So it's a PDF, it's a PDF file. And then for your paperback interior, it's also a specific type of PDF file that's formatted. So that's, that's it. Now it's not that easy, right? You got to actually have people that can format and design. And that's actually one of the reasons why I created Authors Unite.
