FAQ
What is the difference between "Book Formatting" and "Professional Typesetting"?
While basic formatting just moves text around, Professional Typesetting is an art form. I focus on "micro-typography"—adjusting letter spacing (kerning), fixing "widows and orphans" (lonely lines at the top or bottom of pages), and ensuring the text block is visually balanced. This gives your book t
Will my Paperback Layout meet Amazon KDP and IngramSpark requirements
Yes, 100%. I stay updated on the latest technical specifications for both Amazon KDP and IngramSpark. I manually calibrate your mirror margins, gutter size, and bleed settings based on your specific page count, so you can upload your file and pass the technical review on the very first try.
Can I edit my book after you have finished the ePub or Print layout?
Because typesetting and ePub conversion are final-stage technical processes, I highly recommend that your manuscript be "locked" and fully edited before we begin. However, I offer a set number of revisions for minor typos or small tweaks to ensure the final product is absolutely perfect before you h
What is a "Reflowable" ePub, and why do I need it?
A reflowable ePub is the industry standard for Kindle and Apple Books. It allows the reader to change the font size or background color on their device without breaking the layout. I hand-code and test my ePubs to ensure your images, table of contents, and chapters look beautiful on every screen siz
What does your "Manuscript Editing" service actually cover?
I provide Line Editing and Copyediting. This means I look for more than just typos; I fix grammatical errors, improve sentence flow, eliminate repetitive words, and ensure your "voice" remains consistent from the first page to the last. I want your story to shine, not your punctuation.
Do you handle complex layouts like Cookbooks, Poetry, or Workbooks?
Absolutely. Each genre has its own "rules." Poetry requires specific indentations and white space; Cookbooks need clear ingredient lists and timing headers. I specialize in custom interior designs that match the specific "vibe" and functional needs of your book's genre.
My manuscript is currently in a messy Word doc. Can you fix it?
Don't be embarrassed—most authors start there! I take your raw Word or Google Doc and perform a "Deep Clean." I remove double spaces, fix broken tabs, and normalize the styles before I even start the professional typesetting process.
How do you handle "Images and Graphics" in a Paperback Layout?
I ensure all images are high-resolution (300 DPI) and converted to the correct CMYK color profile for printing. I also manage "Full-Bleed" layouts, where images go all the way to the edge of the page, ensuring nothing important gets cut off during the printing process.
Will my ePub have a "Clickable" Table of Contents?
Yes. Navigation is key for a great eBook experience. I create a fully functional, multi-level clickable Table of Contents (TOC) and internal hyperlinks (for footnotes or external websites) so your readers can navigate your book with a single tap.
Can I trust you with my intellectual property and unreleased story?
I take your privacy and hard work very seriously. Your manuscript is treated with 100% confidentiality and will never be shared, sold, or used for any other purpose. I am happy to sign an NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) if you require one for your peace of mind.
