I've done multiple tutorials showing you how to design book covers using Canva. In one of those videos, someone commented that Canva book covers get rejected. Since I've never published a book with a cover designed in Canva, I got curious, and I dug up a whole mess of issues. Supposedly, there are accounts being terminated because they used Canva, covers being rejected, and there are lots of copyright infringement issues. I did a little bit of a deep dive to figure out what issues people are encountering and solutions to those issues. But ultimately, I want to answer: can you self-publish a book to KDP if you designed it using Canva?
