6.14" × 9.21"

Full-wrap cover dimensions

Your cover file holds back cover + spine + front cover plus 0.125 in of bleed on each outside edge, so its width depends on page count and paper. For example, at 300 pages on white paper a 6.14" × 9.21" cover is 13.2056 × 9.46 in. All values below are computed from KDP's formula.
