What file formats are required for book cover submissions?

For Mystery Book Covers, publishers and platforms typically require high-resolution files in specific formats. The most commonly accepted formats include JPEG (JPG), PNG, PDF, and TIFF, with 300 DPI resolution for sharp print quality.

For eBooks, platforms like Amazon Kindle and Apple Books prefer JPEG or PNG with an RGB color profile. For print books, publishers often request PDF with embedded fonts and CMYK color mode to ensure accurate color reproduction. When designing a mystery book cover, maintaining clarity, contrast, and readability is crucial to creating an intriguing and professional look.
