Create or Design your eBook Covers.

Additionally, there is other software that can be used to create eBook covers without difficulty, such as PowerPoint or Impress of the Open Office Suite.

If you are self-publishing for the Kindle, Amazon.com has a direct publishing capability with pr-formatted layout templates that you can use to create your eBook cover.

Amazon’s instructions step you through uploading a pre-made eBook cover they will include with your content. However, if you would like to include your cover in your actual eBook, Amazon.com’s program does not provide this capability. You must insert the html code with your eBook cover image and include it in your eBook content for the cover to be inside your eBook.

You can do a search in the Amazon.com Kindle community or in one of the Search Engines, “How To Add eBook Cover for Kindle” or a similar phrase to obtain more information and/or instructions on how to include your eBook cover in your manuscript.
