Print and Ebook formatting service

PRINT AND EBOOK FORMATTING SERVICE – £249

Our print and eBook formatting service is the perfect package for indie authors who are looking to maximise their book’s potential from the off. We create a professional, high-quality book interior from your finished manuscript, making sure that it meets industry standards. You will receive a PDF file that will be ‘print-ready’ to use for online Print on Demand companies, such as CreateSpace, Lulu, or Ingram Spark, and two EBook files (MOBI and EPUB), ready for upload to your digital retailer/distributor.

Service includes:

  • Print and eBook formatting
  • Professionally designed and formatted print-ready PDF file
  • Professional formatted eBook files (MOBI and EPUB formats)
  • Table of contents created (eBooks only)
  • Copyright page and content (if you don’t already have one)
  • Your cover image included in your file (supplied by you, unless you opt for one of our cover design or combined packages) – eBook only
  • Unlimited changes until the project is signed off

Optional extras:

  • Non-fiction – Please contact us for further details
  • Images – although not recommended for eBooks, we can work with images for a small cost, with a fixed price per image for both print and eBooks.
  • Tables and graphs – Again, although not recommended for eBooks, we can work with tables/graphs/charts for a small, fixed cost per inclusion for both print and eBooks.
  • Decorative elements (print only)
  • Content changes after the project’s completion (once the book has been signed off).
  • Smashwords version (eBook only)

THE NEXT STEP

Simply complete the form on the right, giving as much information as possible, and this will allow us to know whether we have enough to start with or whether we need to contact you to discuss requirements before getting back to you with our initial concept and thoughts.  When we, and you, are ready to begin the print and eBook formatting process, a deposit of 50% of the standard fee is required.  The balance of the payment, as well as any additional costs for optional extras, will be required once a design has been agreed upon and prior to the release of any artwork. If you’d rather discuss your requirements in an more informal manner prior to going ahead, please use our standard contact form.

ABOUT YOU

ABOUT YOUR BOOK

PRINT BOOK SPECIFICATIONS

Trim Size
Your trim size is the width and height of your book as you look at it lying flat on a surface. It is the finished size your book will be, based on if you were to measure your front cover. Knowing your trim size in advance is important as this will not only affect the shape of your back and front covers, but also the thickness of the spine, based on the number of pages and paper type. Please select your preferred trim size from below.

Paper Colour
Please specify which colour of paper you're planning on using for your internal pages. It's important to note that white is generally reserved for non-fiction and reference books, whereas cream is the standard for fiction.

Who will you be using to print your book?
Please note that your final balance will increase by £50 for every additional printer you select beyond your first as a different set-up will be required for each.
