Common publishing mistake #50: a book language left on the template default.

E-readers can use it for hyphenation, the dictionary and text-to-speech. A German novel tagged as English reads oddly.

Checked yours?

Common publishing mistake #49: pasting in text with hidden formatting.

Old notes can carry their own font, spacing or fixed black text that looks off in an ebook or fades in night mode. Paste as plain text, then style it.

Where did yours come from?

Common publishing mistake #46: "see page 87" in an ebook.

Font size and screen move every page break, so page numbers lead nowhere. Point to chapter or section names, or use an internal link.

Which part of your book sends readers back most?

Common publishing mistake #47: hand-typed footnotes in an ebook.

There's no fixed page bottom, so notes drift or become dead numbers. Use the real footnote tool and check each note links there and back.

Do your books use notes at all?

Common publishing mistake #42: hitting Enter until the next chapter starts a new page.

Ebooks reflow, so those empty lines become blank screens and stranded headings. Use a real page break or "Page break before" on the heading style.

How many stray Enters did yours hide?

Common publishing mistake #41: floating images with text wrap.

Reflowable ebooks have no fixed page, so wrapped images can jump, overlap text or drift. Set each image "In line with text" on its own line, then test font sizes.

Which image fought you most?

Common publishing mistake #36: proofing ebook maps and art only on a white page.

In dark mode, black line art on a transparent background can vanish. Check every theme; add a light background.

Found something missing in night mode?

Along the way I found and fixed four warnings or errors that epubcheck never gives, and one case where epubcheck skips a document, now filed upstream.

The EU Accessibility Act isn't a future problem. KDP is already updating upload requirements globally. No proper alt text on your ebook images = formatting flags or outright rejection. Backlist with heavy imagery needs an audit now.

KDP auto-formatting: useful, but limited. For simple ebooks, it's fine. But if you're using tables, code, or have a specific vision, you'll need to format yourself. Don't let your ebook look unprofessional! #KDP #SelfPublishing #EbookFormatting
