Typesetting Process

Our streamlined typesetting process ensures that your book is formatted correctly and efficiently, with multiple rounds of revisions to ensure perfection. Here’s how it works:

Initial Clean-Up and Formatting: After reviewing your manuscript, we clean up any formatting inconsistencies, correct issues with margins, and prepare your content for typesetting.
Incorporating Images, Charts, and Tables: We handle the integration of visual elements like images, charts, and tables, placing them within your text and ensuring they’re properly formatted for easy viewing.
Proofing and Final Adjustments: After we’ve finished the initial layout, you’ll receive PDF proofs for review. You can request revisions, and we’ll make the necessary changes to ensure the formatting is flawless.
Final Product: Once you approve the final version, we deliver a print-ready or eBook-ready file that meets your publisher’s requirements or the standards of your print-on-demand partner.

Key Process: Page Design and Typesetting

When creating the interior of your book, there are two key steps: Page Design and Typesetting. Let’s break down each step to help you understand the process.

Step 1: Page Design Process

The Page Design process is about shaping the overall look of your book’s interior pages. This includes choosing the right trim size, setting the margins, and selecting the best fonts and sizes for the body text. It’s also about deciding how to design the various elements in your manuscript that need attention, such as:

Chapter numbers and titles
Lists, photos, and graphics
Image captions, tables, charts, and pull quotes
Sidebars and any special design elements

Once we’ve created a design draft, we’ll send it to you for feedback and approval. After you’re happy with the design, we move to the next step: Typesetting.

Step 2: Typesetting Process

In the Typesetting stage, we take the approved page design and apply it to your entire book. This means we format (or typeset) your book page-by-page, from beginning to end. After typesetting, you’ll receive a proof that shows exactly how the final printed pages will look. This is your chance to review the design and suggest any changes.

Once you’ve reviewed the proof and made any necessary edits, we finalize the design and prepare a print-ready file for your printer. By the end of the typesetting process, your book will be ready for production!

In short, page design focuses on the layout and visual elements of your book, while typesetting involves formatting the text and finalizing the design for printing. Both steps are crucial to ensure your book is polished, professional, and ready for your readers.
