Formatting and Editing Services

Professional book formatting and publishing services

We take your manuscript to a publish-ready file. Professional formatting for eBooks, paperbacks, hardcovers, and children's books across Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, Lulu, and more.

Print & eBook Formatting

We format your manuscript interior for both print (PDF) and digital (EPUB) editions. Every file is built to exact platform specs. We ensure the correct margins, trim size, typography, and chapter structure, so your book looks professional in print and on every e-reader.

fixing Rejected Files

Has your book been rejected by Amazon KDP or IngramSpark? We can fix bleed errors, margin violations, image resolution, or spine width and deliver corrected, platform-approved files. 

Self-Publishing Consultation

Are you new to self-publishing? We provide one-on-one guidance on selecting a platform (KDP vs IngramSpark vs Lulu), formatting requirements, trim sizes, book pricing, and the full path from manuscript to published title so you can make confident, informed decisions.

Step 1 – Submit Your Manuscript & Requirements

Send your manuscript (DOC or DOCX), any style preferences, and project details. We review your content, confirm your target platform (KDP, IngramSpark, or Lulu), and agree on all formatting specifications before work begins.

Step 2 – Receive a Clear, Itemized Quote

You receive a transparent, fixed-price quote based on your book's length, format type, and platform requirements. There are no hidden fees, no scope creep, and no surprises.

Step 3 – Professional Interior Layout

We format your manuscript into a polished book interior, including correct typography, paragraph spacing, chapter headings, front matter, and page layout. Your files are optimized for print PDF and EPUB based on your chosen platform and trim size.

Step 4 – Review, Feedback & Revisions

You review the formatted draft and request any changes. We provide up to 3 rounds of review and revision to ensure the layout meets your exact expectations. 

Step 5 – Delivery of Publish-Ready Files

Your final files are delivered ready to upload directly to Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, Lulu, or your chosen platform. Every file is formatted to platform specifications and guaranteed to pass automated review checks on the first submission.
