when you want to add lines onto the pages go to template, type in teacher and the first template was a page of lines with 2 objects that I clicked on and deleted. That left just the lines so it was much easier than doing individual lines

thankyou so much!!! My mum is not well, and her health concerns have chewed through her savings and left her unable to keep her current job.

You can click in the lower right hand corner where it will show you all of your pages, highlight the the first 10 and then right click, it will bring up the option to duplicate however many you selected. Just a time saving tip. Hope this helps. Again thank you for all of the valuable information.

FREEDOM!! My name is Liberty! Love your name ! My freedom Empire!!! how much does amazon pay you for each notebook/low content book?? whats the commission rate? is it really worth it?? how do i promote my books once i make them??tysm

[@MyFreedomEmpire]

Hello and thank you! 😀 Amazon pays you a "royalty" for each book sold which they pop into your bank account when you reach a certain threshold.The commission rate is usually 60% of the sale price after printing costs. It can be worth it yes. It's not easy and it can take some time but you can build a really substantial income with self-publishing if you stick with it and find what works. In terms of promotion you can run Amazon ads, you can create social media channels and a website and promote through those channels, build an email list and promote books there. Hope that helps.

[@sensavia]

[@chariots8x230]

I’ve been binge watching many of your videos and I find them very helpful! I want to get started making books soon but there are a few things that I need to understand better before starting. One of these things that I’d like to learn more about is what Amazon considers duplicate content, and how to avoid getting in trouble with Amazon over duplicate content. For example, in a video that I watched, I heard that using public domain work is not recommended because it may lead to “duplicate content issues” with Amazon. I’m not exactly sure what was meant by this though. I don’t know if it has anything to do with people not modifying the work before posting it on Amazon, or if this type of content is just not acceptable at all. I wonder how Amazon’s duplicate content rules would apply to pictures. I’d love some suggestions on where people who create KDP books get their images from. In addition to this, I definitely need to figure out how image licenses work and how to properly research images before using them in a book. If I use them, I’m not sure if I have the right to modify them, or use them as is. I really don’t know much about how any of this works, and I’m just not sure how to properly do the research. I’ve tried reading the terms of use in websites but they are always very long and confusing. So, I’m hesitant to create anything until I know for sure how to avoid getting into trouble with copyright and trademark laws. I need to be clear about my rights to using an image, before I decide to use it. It can be pretty confusing in my opinion. Even free images on Canva don’t seem to be guaranteed, as Canva states in their website “We can’t guarantee that any free images, music and video files have the appropriate releases for commercial use.”

[@MyFreedomEmpire]

Amazon allows the use of public domain works as long as you annotate, illustrate or translate it. In terms of images, yes the legal jargon can be confusing. If you are concerned about understanding the licenses correctly, you can speak to an IP lawyer for clarification. Alternatively, you can create your own illustrations or hires someone to do it for you.

[@chariots8x230]

@@MyFreedomEmpire Thank you again for the reply! :) I guess I'm just trying to be super cautious before I create or submit anything. Since I'm just starting out, I can't afford to talk to any lawyers for advice or hire someone to create illustrations for me. I have to rely on free or affordable methods to get the images that I need. I think the important place to start is to first find good websites where I can get images from, and to also understand image licenses and my rights to those images. I tried reading into the terms of use in these websites that offer images, but it turned out to be a very long reading and they use some terminology that I'm not yet familiar with. It was difficult to understand, but maybe I wasn't looking at the right thing. These websites can be very wordy and it's not always clear where to find the information that I'm looking for. Also, I think I might have to research the meaning of individual jargon that they commonly use in order to hopefully break down the message better.

[@yvonnemoore1128]

How do you set up in Canva for books where left and right pages need to be different i.e. no bleed on the inside of left hand pages (even numbered) and no bleed on the inside of right hand (odd numbered) pages.

[@MyFreedomEmpire]

Thank you! I've never used tangent templates so can't really comment on them. Book Bolt don't have a huge range so I would just go with whoever has what you need and which ones look the most professional. With the author name, it's really what suits you and how you want to run your business. If you want to be the face of your brand then use your own name. If you don't want your name to be out in the public - a lot of us as authors and publishers use pen names - then create an author name to publish your books under.

Sometimes Amazon sees the lines as "words" but only on certain pages, I don't know why. If you are having issues, try creating the lines by using Elements > Lines and then expand the line across the page. Adjust to whatever colour and weight you want the line and then just copy and paste it until you have your page full of lines.

Hey Caroline, first off, your videos are so so useful. Thank you for making them! I had a question about using free stock photos in canva. From what I understand, they are pulled from Unsplash and similar websites, correct? And Unsplash needs you to change up the photo and 'make it your own' such that there's a difference between that and the original photograph. In that case, is it okay to use the background images as-is (such as this marble background)?

In this particular case, there aren't margins as the lines have bleed. If you are having issues using this method, perhaps try creating lines another way. Instead of using the text tool to create the lines, go to Elements and select Line.
