How to upload to KDP

We recommend deleting old files of your book from your computer before uploading new files of the same book containing revisions to KDP. The title, subtitle, author name, series information, and ISBN in your manuscript file must match the details you entered during title setup. To upload your manuscript file:

Go to your Bookshelf .

Click the ellipsis button ("…") under KINDLE EBOOK ACTIONS next to the book you want to upload.

Choose Edit eBook Content .

In the "Manuscript" section, click Upload eBook manuscript .

Find your manuscript file on your computer and click Open .

After we finish converting your file, you'll see a confirmation. This can take from five to seven minutes. Note: You can view Spell Check results and open Online Previewer to ensure your formatting is as you intended.
