Will you provide a custom offer for my book?

Yes, I can create a custom offer based on your word count and image count. Kindly reach out with your questions, and I will provide a tailored offer for your specific book type. Clear communication throughout the process is valued, so don't hesitate to get in touch.

 

What if I need revisions?

I offer 2-3 complimentary revisions to ensure your complete satisfaction. Should additional revisions be necessary, I will provide a quote based on the scope of the changes required.

​

Can you work with any trim size?

Yes, I can work with any trim size. However, using a standard size simplifies the process for both parties. Common sizes include 6 x 9, 5.5 x 8.5, and 5 x 8. Additionally, note that a minimum of 100 pages is required for Print on Demand books to feature text on the spine. If you need assistance, please ask.

 

Do you assist with book cover design?

While I do not personally handle book cover design, I can recommend several excellent and affordable cover designers I work with daily. I can also assist with designing book covers in addition to formatting the interior by coordinating with these designers. For print books, remember that the cover should be designed after the interior layout is complete to ensure accurate spine calculation based on the final page count. I will only assist with book covers where I have complete creative freedom.

 

What if my book exceeds 200,000 words?

I can accommodate manuscripts over 200,000 words. Please message me the word count for your manuscript. If you have a recipe, poetry, journal, or workbook, please contact me first. Feel free to ask any questions, as I aim to foster long-term client relationships and enjoy assisting new authors.

 

What if I have multiple books to format?

I am equipped to manage this task. Please message me for a custom order. For substantial multiple orders, I typically need to review the files to understand the manuscript's requirements. If you have a complex non-fiction file with numerous footnotes and references, please contact me before ordering.

 

Can I choose any font I prefer?

Yes, you may choose any font, but I will also provide recommendations. I use professional fonts for which I pay a monthly fee. Unlike many others who format without professional fonts, I ensure a high-quality presentation by using the best tools available.

 

Do you provide editable source files?

Yes, I offer editable source files at no additional cost with every job. I understand the importance of having a file that you can modify post-publication if necessary.

 

What file format do you prefer for submission?

I prefer submissions in Microsoft Word or Google Docs. While I can accept Adobe PDF and other file formats, it is best to check with me first. If you do not have one of these file formats, we can find a solution. I can also convert Apple Pages if needed.

 

Will you format images?

Yes, I can format up to 20 high-resolution images (300 dpi or greater). For more than 20 images, it requires an additional fee. Please contact me if you have over 20 images. Note that I format images provided by you; I do not supply or illustrate images.

 

Will you format a matching eBook?

Absolutely, I can format multiple versions of your book, including eBook, Print Color, Website Versions, and Print Black & White. It is advisable to have the same person format both the print book and eBook to ensure consistency.

 

Will you assemble the book for me or do I need to put it together?

Our company prefers to start with a single document. Please ensure all images and other elements are placed in the Microsoft Word file where they belong in the manuscript. This helps us manage our large volume of orders efficiently and saves time on positioning these elements correctly.

 

What is your turnaround time?

The typical turnaround time for book formatting ranges from 4-7 business days, depending on the complexity and length of your manuscript. For rush orders, please contact me to discuss availability and rush pricing.

 

Do you offer any discounts for large projects?

Yes, I offer discounts for large projects or multiple book orders. Please provide details about your project, and I will furnish a customized quote.

 

What file formats do you accept for manuscripts?

Preferred formats for text and images include DOCX, PDF, Google Docs, or Apple Pages.

 

Do you offer editing services?

I can proofread the manuscript for errors using software, available for an additional fee. Please inquire about this service if needed.

 

What genres do you specialize in?

I have a list of genres on the About page. There are numerous genres, so they cannot all be listed here.
