Series — side by side
A comparison chart of your own volumes above a header and the specs. Built for an author whose next sale is their own backlist.
4 of KDP's 5 allowed modules · 2 images from your book · Publisher and up
Every image below is a render of the layout itself, through the same pipeline that produces the submission files. Each image slot carries a label — "Front cover", "Page 3" — naming what your own book supplies there once you link it. Nothing on this page is a screenshot of a live listing.

1. Standard Comparison Chart
The chart is for a series — which volume is which — not for comparing your book to someone else's. Comparisons to other products are prohibited outright, and are among the causes authors get rejected for most.
| Slot | Filled from | Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Column 1 image (image) | Book 1 in the series, its cover | 150×300 (300×600 at 2×) px · KDP says |
| Column 1 product name (text) | the book's title — “This book” until you link a book | 80 characters · provisional (Seller Central figure) |
| Chart title (text) | the pack's own wording — “Every book in the series” until you link a book | 80 characters · provisional (Seller Central figure) |
2. Standard Image Header with Text
The header is the only module a shopper is guaranteed to see, so it carries the cover and the one sentence that says what the book is. KDP typesets the text over the image rather than baking it in, which is why the headline here is a field and not part of the artwork.
| Slot | Filled from | Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Header image (image) | The book's front cover | 970×600 (1940×1200 at 2×) px · provisional (Seller Central figure) |
| Body text (text) | the first sentences of the listing description — “What this book is, in a sentence or two.” until you link a book | 6,000 characters · provisional (Seller Central figure) |
| Headline (text) | the book's title — “Your Book Title” until you link a book | 150 characters · provisional (Seller Central figure) |
| Subheadline (text) | the book's subtitle — “Your Subtitle” until you link a book | 200 characters · provisional (Seller Central figure) |
3. Standard Text
A headline and a paragraph. Useful as a closing note; wasteful as an opener, because the shopper reaching it has already scrolled past the cover.
| Slot | Filled from | Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Body text (text) | a section of the listing description — “Which volume to read first, and why.” until you link a book | 5,000 characters · provisional (Seller Central figure) |
| Headline (text) | the pack's own wording — “Where to Start” until you link a book | 160 characters · provisional (Seller Central figure) |
4. Standard Technical Specifications
A specification table with no image — the same facts as the specs-detail module, for a book whose pages do not photograph well.

Using this layout
In the Book Studio A+ Content Designer this pack is one click: it adds every module, fills each plate from the book you linked, writes the starting copy from the listing, and resolves the palette above into your own brand colours. To build it by hand in A+ Content Manager instead, the tables above give you every module name, slot size and character limit — and the free template maker will export each image at the exact pixels.
The full limits table for all seventeen modules is in the character-limits guide.
Pack version 1, catalog hash f7129200fd1d, rendered 2026-09-06. A conforming file is not an approval — Amazon reviews A+ content by hand.
