  • What You Can Expect


    GETTING STARTED:

    Fill in what you can of the order form, and your publishing consultant will respond within 1 business day to assist you with any additional information your designer might need and confirm billing and scheduling for your project. Once confirmed, payment of the invoice is required no later than your start date.

    THE PROCESS:

    After you review the first mock-up/proof (mock-ups are exterior design and proofs are interior design), the designer will process your revisions request and produce a new mock-up/proof. Review and revise steps will repeat until you are completely satisfied.*

    - Your managing editor will be available every step of the way.

    - Time in between start date and first mock-up/proof, then between your revisions requests and next mock-up/proof can vary from 1-5 business days depending on complexity of the project and/or amount of revisions being made.

    COMPLETION:

    Upon approval, publishing files are typically delivered within 1 business day.

    CONTINUED SUPPORT:

    If during the publishing steps, you encounter any issues related to the layout of the files, your designer will resolve the problem quickly. File acceptance is 100% guaranteed.** Our team is also available for cost effective updates/changes to publishing files if needed in the future.

    FINE PRINT:

    * Unlimited revisions within reason. Changing your mind to the extent that it causes the designer rework will result in additional fees.

    ** 100% guaranteed file acceptance applies to the platform the file was created for, not across other platforms, in the case of print files, as each one has different requirements that make cross platform use impossible in most situations. Covers designer error and most platform requirement changes that would require adjustment of size or some other setting for eBook and print files. Does not cover author wanting to make changes after publishing file delivery for any versions.

  • Marketing Material Add-Ons:

  • *Designs requiring multiple images or specialty art work may result in additional fees, but that would be discussed during the mock-up steps so you are aware and able to make choices before any additional fees accumulate.

    ***We need this form and your manuscript in order to prepare your custom nonfiction book design quote. Do select the service(s) you want for your nonfiction project and also the box indicating it is nonfiction, and then we will assess if there will be additional fees for complex headings and images to discuss with you before scheduling. You'll be able to upload the manuscript later in the form.

  • eBook Interior File

    We provide an EPUB file because it is the most widely-accepted eBook format on the market and a remarkably flexible format that supports a wealth of features like allowing the user to optimize a book’s text to fit their device, bookmarking, highlighting, and text-to-speak. It’s the industry standard used by Apple, Kobo, Barnes & Noble, Sony, and Google e-readers, and many more, including Amazon.
