About this gig

Textbooks and workbooks are where generic formatters give up, and where I come in.


I design image-heavy book interiors in Adobe InDesign, built to order. No templates: a custom page system for your content, with every figure captioned and anchored where it belongs, tables that stay legible, and exercises, answer keys and glossaries structured properly.


How it works:

  1. We discuss trim size, fonts, colour and style
  2. You get a sample spread within 3 days we refine until the design is right
  3. I build master pages and consistent styles, then typeset the full book
  4. Full draft for your review, revisions, then final files


You receive: a print-ready PDF with correct bleed and trim 100% approved for KDP, IngramSpark and Lulu.


Supply your images in high resolution; basic prep (cropping, sizing, light correction) is included. Blurry charts, missing diagrams or custom illustrations? Available as add-ons see my gig extras.


Minor corrections after delivery are always free.


For image-heavy, diagram-heavy or highly technical books, please message me with your manuscript before ordering.

Delivery style preference

Please inform the freelancer of any preferences or concerns regarding the use of AI tools in the completion and/or delivery of your order.

I've written and formatted hundreds of books. Working in Adobe InDesign, I've produced published titles across cookbooks, children's and teen non-fiction, novels and workbooks. So I know what a real interior needs: clean master pages, anchored images that stay where you put them, recipe grids that don't break across a spread, and files that pass KDP and IngramSpark validation the first time.
