Our Services

The range of services we offer includes

♦ page layout and design
♦ cover design
♦ basic manuscript editing and proofreading
♦ high-resolution scanning
♦ preparation and manipulation of images, illustrations, and photos
♦ typography
♦ website assistance
♦ a variety of publishing tools

We offer a number of formatting options for authors choosing to self-publish and for those working with print-on-demand publishers.

While each project is unique, nonetheless as a general rule your costs may be more quickly recoverable than you realize.
For example, a book of 200+ pages, sized 5.5 × 8.5 inches, could recover both layout and printing costs on selling just 100 copies at standard markup. Ask for details when we discuss your project!
