General
Format $145
The General Format is for text-only manuscripts. The manuscript can be set to whatever size
the client requires with margins and gutters set at the correct dimensions for printing in that size. Sizes offered include
but are not limited to 6x9, 5.5x8.5, A5, 8.5x11, pocket book etc. The service includes spacing of text appropriate for the
style of the manuscript, paragraph indenting, chapter breaks, page numbering, and page headers in any style requested. A title
page and a copyright page will also be inserted if requested, along with any other preliminary pages the client may require.
During the formatting process, we will remove any incorrect formatting such as unnecessary carriage breaks, manual double
spacing, badly formatted tabs, and unnecessarily hyphenated words caused by new lines. The service will take approximately
one week, and includes up to three revisions. It also includes a font-embedded, print-ready PDF.

This service includes all the options from the General Format service and is suitable for
manuscripts that include images and/or graphics. Appropriate manuscripts for this service include but are not limited to technical
works, biographies, historical manuscripts, memoirs, family histories, recipe books, etc. Images will need to be sent separately
from the text in jpeg or similar format. The images can be resized and will be inserted into the manuscript where indicated
by the author. This service does not include creation of any images or graphics, but it does include re-sizing and positioning
them to obtain the best overall design for the work. The service includes creation and/or manipulation of text boxes to provide
the best layout for picture captions, sidebars, or any other information outside the main body of the text.
The service also includes
the insertion and formatting of a table of contents, footnotes and endnotes should they be required and up to three revisions.
The
cost of this service depends on the size of the manuscript, the quantity of images and/or graphics to be included, and work
necessary to design and create the final ready-to-print PDF . Please contact us for a free, no-obligation estimate.
No
liability will be accepted for insertion of any images the creator does not own or have permission to use.
