About this gig
Professional novel formatting, manuscript formatting and book formatting for print and ebook publication.
I am a book designer with 20+ years of experience, an MA in design and a background in publishing, editorial design, book formatting and cover design. I work with authors, indie publishers and publishing houses worldwide.
I will create a clean, professional fiction book layout that is easy to read, visually consistent and ready for Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, Lulu or another selected platform.
Depending on your package, I can deliver:
- print-ready paperback or hardcover files
- publish-ready ebook files
- professional typography and page layout
- chapter opening pages
- page numbering, headers and footers
- clickable table of contents for ebook
- proper typesetting
- endnotes and footnotes if needed
- simple interior images in selected packages
- source files in selected packages
Each package includes files for one selected publishing platform. Extra platforms are available as an add-on.
I work in Adobe InDesign. Source files are INDD format. I do not format books in MS Word or Canva.
Need a book cover or custom package? Please contact me before ordering.

Please inform the freelancer of any preferences or concerns regarding the use of AI tools in the completion and/or delivery of your order.

FAQ
1. What is included in each package?
Basic includes clean fiction book formatting for print OR ebook, up to 10,000 words. Standard includes professional fiction novel formatting for print OR ebook, up to 75,000 words. Premium includes complete formatting for both print and ebook, up to 120,000 words.
2. What do I need to provide for the work to begin?
Please provide your final manuscript in an editable format, such as DOC, DOCX or RTF, plus your book title, author name, publishing platform, preferred format and trim size. Please make sure the manuscript is final before I start formatting.
3. Will I have a say in the book's appearance?
Yes. You can share style preferences, examples or notes before I start. I will design the interior layout to fit your book’s genre and tone. Revisions are included according to your package, but major redesigns or new layout directions may require an extra fee.
4. Will I get files ready for KDP or IngramSpark etc?
Yes. I can prepare files for Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, Lulu or another selected publishing platform. Each package includes files prepared for one selected platform only. Additional platforms require the Extra Platform add-on or a custom offer.
5. Do you upload the book to Amazon KDP or IngramSpark for me?
No. I prepare the book files for publishing, but I do not upload your book, set up your publishing account, choose metadata, set prices, handle ISBN registration or manage your publishing dashboard.
6. Will I get files for publication both in print and as an ebook?
Basic and Standard include files for print OR ebook, depending on your selected format. Premium includes both print and ebook files. If you need both print and ebook for Basic or Standard, please add the Print + Ebook extra or contact me for a custom offer.
7. What is a custom offer?
A custom offer is a personalized order for books that do not fit the standard packages, for example very long books, image-heavy books, complex formatting, both print and ebook files for Basic/Standard, or multiple publishing platforms.
8. What does “number of images” mean?
It means simple interior images or visual elements that I create, source or prepare for your book layout. It does not mean complex custom illustrations. Image-heavy books or advanced illustration work may require a custom offer.
9. What are source files?
Source files are editable working files used to create the final book layout. They are included in Standard and Premium. For Basic, source files can be added as an extra. Final publishing files are included according to your selected package.
10. Are revisions included?
Yes. Each package includes a limited number of revisions. Revisions are for small adjustments to the existing formatting, such as spacing, typography, page breaks, headers, footers or table of contents corrections. Major manuscript changes after formatting may require an extra fee.
