Book Formatting Services
Interior formatting is what makes a book feel published: correct margins and gutters, professional chapter openers, clean typography, and files that pass KDP and IngramSpark review the first time. From $99.
Readers cannot name bad formatting, but they feel it: lines too wide, gutters too tight, headers on blank pages, a table of contents that does not link. Retailers can name it, and reject files for it. Formatting is the cheapest step of publishing and the one that most visibly separates professional from homemade, which makes it the worst place to improvise.
We typeset print interiors to your trim size with proper front and back matter, and build reflowable EPUBs that behave on every Kindle, phone, and tablet. Fixed-layout formatting for picture books and image-heavy nonfiction is a specialty tier, since that is where DIY tools fail hardest.

Frequently asked questions
How much does book formatting cost?
Professional formatting services typically charge $150 to $500 per book depending on complexity. Scriters formats standard text interiors from $99 per format, or $179 for ebook and print together.
What do you need from me?
Your final, edited manuscript in Word, your trim size (we advise if unsure), and any interior images at print resolution. Formatting is the step after editing; if the text is still changing, format last.
Can you fix formatting another service botched?
Yes. Send the file and the rejection notice if there is one; we quote a repair or a clean re-set, whichever is cheaper for you.
