I will format your print novel interior for KDP


About this gig
***PLEASE NOTE*** - I am FIRMLY anti-ai, and would like to format human-made novels only.
Looking to save some time so you can start working on the next book? You've come to the right place! I've been designing my own book interiors for about four years now, and spent a lot of time learning how to get it right.
But I'm new at offering this service to others (I'm shy), so that's why my prices are so low!
All three packages include:
- one trim size
- table of contents
- line spacing
- drop caps
- margins
- layout
- image placements (bring your own!)
- header/footer choices
- font sizes
What you'll get:
- one PDF ready for upload to KDP
What I require:
- a docx or odt file of your finished novel (must be already proofread and edited!)
- any image files (see note below)
- trim size
- any preferences
NOTE: please send all maps/chapter images/section break images as vector files OR with a minimum of 600dpi.
Let's bring your book to life!
PS - if you're looking for Ebooks, too, I have less experience with these but I'm willing to give it a try - reach out and let's talk!
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.

FAQ
Why do I have to bring my own images?
Most novels tend to have maps or chapter graphics made specifically for that book. But if you don't want to include any, you don't have to! It's entirely up to you.
Why only one trim size?
The software that I use isn't great at switching trim sizes in the middle (or at the end) of projects! This is something I need to know before I begin.
If I have an issue uploading the PDF onto KDP, will you help me troubleshoot it?
Of course I can help talk you through any issues! Message me with any concerns/screenshots of the error/issue, and I'll do my best to help. PLEASE NOTE: I cannot log into your KDP account for you! DO NOT send any login information!
Can my maps/character art/chapter images bleed off the page?
Absolutely! Just let me know ahead of time, because this affects the page size. You'll also have to select "bleed" on the KDP content tab when you're uploading your paperback book.
Can you upload my book for me?
No, unfortunately not. Amazon is really strict about accounts, and it could jeopardize mine if I suddenly log into another one! Uploading has to be done by the Author themselves.
What files do I need to send you?
Send me a docx (Word) or odt (LibreOffice) file containing the contents of your book in the order you want everything to appear. If you have any images, send them separately as vector graphics or png/jpeg with a minimum dpi of 600.
My map is in RGB color. Can you convert this to greyscale CMYK?
I can, but it's not ideal. I recommend that you check this first before starting the formatting process, as sometimes the greyscale and CMYK conversion washes out a lot of detail and may require edits (which I do not do).
