We format eBooks into ePub and MOBI, the two formats that cover every major digital platform. ePub for Apple Books, Kobo, Google Play, and most other retailers. MOBI for Amazon Kindle. Every file includes a clickable table of contents, properly styled chapter headings, correct font embedding, and formatting that adapts cleanly to whatever screen size or font setting a reader uses. We test every file before delivery so you know it'll pass platform review.
Print formatting is a different discipline from eBook formatting entirely. Margins, bleed, gutter widths, header and footer placement, page numbering, and trim size all have to be right before a file goes to print. We produce print-ready PDFs for paperback and hardback editions across all standard trim sizes, 5x8, 5.5x8.5, 6x9, and others, built to the exact specifications of your chosen printer or platform. If you're publishing through Amazon KDP or IngramSpark, we know their requirements and build your files accordingly.
Amazon KDP has specific formatting requirements for both Kindle eBooks and print editions, and files that don't meet them get rejected or display incorrectly. We format manuscripts specifically for KDP, producing Kindle-ready files for digital publication and print-ready PDFs for KDP print, all built to Amazon's current specifications. If you're publishing exclusively through Amazon, we make sure your files are optimised for that platform specifically, including metadata formatting and cover file sizing.
Children's books need a completely different approach to formatting. The relationship between text and illustration, the page flow, the way spreads work across a print edition, all of it requires careful layout rather than standard manuscript formatting. We work with your illustrations and text together, producing print-ready files and eBook versions that preserve the visual integrity of your book across both formats.
Academic and technical manuscripts have their own requirements, consistent citation formatting, properly styled footnotes and endnotes, tables, figures, and reference lists that hold together throughout. We format academic books, theses, and technical titles to the standards required by academic publishers and institutional guidelines, producing files ready for both digital and print distribution.
Most authors publish in more than one format, eBook and paperback as a minimum, sometimes hardback as well. We handle all formats together as a single project, ensuring consistency across every version while meeting each platform's individual specifications. You get every file you need in one process rather than managing separate formatting jobs for each format.

Book formatting costs vary depending on the type of book, the number of formats needed, and the complexity of the layout. A standard fiction novel formatted for eBook and paperback sits at a different price point from a heavily illustrated children’s book or an academic manuscript with complex reference structures. Most professional formatters charge per project, and the scope of the work is what drives the cost. Get in touch and we’ll talk through your manuscript and where you’re publishing, you’ll get a clear, honest quote based on what your book actually needs.
Professional book formatting covers everything needed to take a manuscript from a Word document or similar file to a properly structured, platform-ready publication file. That includes setting correct margins and trim sizes for print, styling chapter headings, page numbers, headers and footers, creating a clickable table of contents for eBooks, embedding fonts correctly, and producing final files in every format required, ePub, MOBI, and print-ready PDF. For more complex projects it also covers footnote and endnote formatting, figure and table placement, and any layout work specific to the book’s genre or format.
Standard book formatting typically takes three to five working days for a straightforward manuscript. More complex projects, children’s books with illustrations, academic titles with extensive reference lists, or multi-format projects covering several different editions, take longer, usually one to two weeks depending on what’s involved. If you have a specific publication deadline, let us know at the start and we’ll work to a timeline that fits. Files are delivered ready to upload, so there’s no back and forth after delivery unless something needs adjusting.
Yes. We produce files specifically built to Amazon KDP’s current technical requirements for both Kindle eBooks and KDP print editions, as well as print-ready PDFs for IngramSpark and other print platforms. Every file is built to the exact specifications required by each platform, which means they pass technical review and display correctly rather than coming back with errors. If you’re publishing across multiple platforms, we produce separate optimised files for each one rather than a single file adapted across all of them.
Absolutely, and most authors do both. eBook and print formatting are different processes with different technical requirements, but we handle both together as a single project so everything stays consistent and you get every file you need in one go. Your eBook will be formatted for ePub and MOBI, and your print edition will have a properly laid out, print-ready PDF built to your trim size and platform specifications. Publishing in both formats significantly increases your book’s visibility and the number of readers who can access it, and it’s always worth doing both from the start.
Every book we publish gets the same level of care, whether it's your first or your fifth. We don't consider our job done until your book is out in the world and you're happy with it. That's been our standard since day one.
