Book and document design and formatting

Creating a clear and consistent design and layout for your text, book or document so that it looks professional and gets your message across. I will work with you to develop ideas into an overall design. I’ll then lay out your text and provide you with proofs. Once you’ve had everything checked, I’ll send you the final file formats you need to submit for publishing or printing. If you already have your own design spec or template, I can use that to do the layout.

 

You will get:

  • sample layouts from which we’ll build a design (unless we’re using yours)

  • PDF proofs of the layout

  • final formatted files, such as a print-ready PDF, an ebook, or another appropriate file format (InDesign, Word, PowerPoint or Excel)

  • copies of the original design files in case you need to make changes in future

Note: I design interior pages and simple document covers. If you’re publishing a book, you will also need to engage a separate cover designer as this is a specialist task.
