There as bits and pieces of information scattered throughout various threads here on MobileRead, including this one: KFX Format

Amazon has documented Ion which is the underlying data storage format for KFX. See https://amzn.github.io/ion-docs/
Thank you!

Basically if you set two pages as being "facing pages" they will be shown together when viewed in landscape mode. If you need them to always be shown together you have to combine the images into a single page before importing into Kindle Create.

Trying to modify the KPF to reflect that after the fact would be difficult to do correctly.
That's actually not it.

In manga, there are "double-spread" as in the it's a single, big image splitted in left and right page. In properly formatted KFX book (directly from Amazon), when view in portrait mode, the first page is shown with small preview of double-spread. Going to next page will go the second page of the spread, but tapping the double-spread preview will display both page in landscape mode. It's a very nice feature, but as far as I know there's no corresponding setting in Kindle Create (actually Kindle Create doesn't even support setting language to Japanese yet).
