I do not understand what you are comparing here. What do you mean by "a magazine I generated"?

The size of a book downloaded from Amazon will often be less than the size as stated on their website. Amazon delivers different image size and quality based on the Kindle device or app that it is being used to read it. Here are some previous discussions of this topic:

How to download full resolution images?

Some questions regarding Oasis 2 & comics/manga

In any case the image quality will never be better than whatever the publisher provides to Amazon.
