It's dubious using Kindle Create for ebooks. Better to use Wordprocessor (edit/save in best native format), save as with Fonts as Docx, convert using Sigil or Calibre to epub2 (with font subsetting), upload the epub2 to Amazon. Amazon admits that works best.

But CRAZY to use Kindle Create for paper.

You get a very poor PDF for paper editions going the Kindle Create Route and the ONLY way to create paper editions is Wordprocessor -> PDF (either export, or via Indesign or any random PDF converter, but not Calibre) -> Publisher.

It's a mad idea to encourage lock-in to Amazon to use either Kindle Create or an eBook for an Amazon paper edition. Creates a poor paperback and lock-in.
