Publish a Large Print Edition on KDP
Roughly a quarter of adults have uncorrected vision problems, and large print editions face far less competition than standard ones — a low-effort second edition of a book you already wrote. A large print book uses a bigger trim (often 7×10), 16pt+ body text, generous line spacing, and wider margins, which naturally increases the page count.

Frequently asked questions
What are the KDP large print specs?
There's no separate KDP 'large print' product — you set it yourself: a larger trim (7×10 is common), 16–18pt body text, 1.5–1.8× line spacing, and comfortable margins. Cream paper is easier on the eyes and reduces glare for low-vision readers.
Is large print really less competitive?
Yes. Most titles never ship a large print edition, so the large print shelf for any given genre is far emptier than the standard shelf — proven readers, fewer competing books.
How many pages will it be?
Large print roughly doubles the page count of a standard edition because of the bigger type and spacing — an 80,000-word novel can land near 480 pages at 16pt on 6×9. Budget for the higher print cost and spine width.
Can PaperbackKit typeset a large print edition?
Yes — PaperbackKit typesets your manuscript into a large print 7×10 interior at 16pt with generous spacing and a free preview, alongside your standard edition, so one manuscript becomes two listings.
