Publishing & Typesetting
While a book’s cover often receives the most attention, the true reader experience lies within the text itself. Clear structure, professional typesetting, and thoughtful publishing decisions are essential to creating a book that is readable, polished, and visually engaging across both print and digital formats.
I provide comprehensive formatting services, ensuring your text is laid out carefully to industry standards. This includes attention to typography, spacing, chapter structure, and the effective integration of graphics and visual elements throughout the text. I can also tailor my service to a specific visual tone that the author has in mind, e.g. academic, child-friendly, etc.
As part of my publishing support I am able to publish works under my own publishing name, and can source ISBN numbers on your behalf if required. This allows authors to publish professionally without needing to set up their own imprint, while still retaining full creative control and ownership of their work.
Process
We will meet and discuss the goals and visual tones of the text, then lay out a timeline and plan. Next I require any graphics or images that need to be included (as well as the manuscript itself) so I can begin working.
From there I will provide some small samples for stylistic approval, before moving onto the text as a whole.
Pricing
For typesetting, formatting, or text layout design I charge an hourly rate of £35. If you require other services as well I will do a package discount off the total project quote, based on an estimated cost of £10 thousand words.
If you would like to discuss potential publishing, typesetting, or text formatting projects, please get in touch via the contact form on the contact page.
