Book Formatting

Interiors that disappear

Good typesetting is invisible. Bad typesetting is the reason someone puts a book down at page four.

What this is

Formatting is where self-published books most often give themselves away: inconsistent chapter openers, widows and orphans, a table of contents that does not link, margins that fight the gutter. None of it is difficult. All of it is noticeable.

What’s included

  • Print interior typeset to trim size with correct gutters and bleed
  • Reflowable EPUB tested on Kindle, Apple Books and Kobo
  • Linked, navigable table of contents
  • Chapter openers, drop caps, running heads and folios
  • Image placement and resolution checks for print
  • Front and back matter — title page, copyright, dedication, about the author

Why it matters

Readers cannot tell you why a book felt professional. This is usually why.

Ready when you are

One conversation is usually enough to tell you whether this is the right next step.
