Interior Page Layout and Formatting for Print versions – Contact us for an estimate or quote

My rates vary, ranging from $249 to $5,000 and depending on the complexity of the book. Generally, if it is a novel (text only), the rate will be on the lower end of the range. If it is a complex textbook or manual with many equations, tables, charts, illustrations, images, and an index, it will fall at the higher end of the range.

For an ESTIMATE, provide me the following information:

    • Genre of the book
    • Number of words in the body of your book
    • Number of illustrations, figures, images, tables, or other added material
    • Size of book, if you have decided on this

Simply email me to get the process started. I look forward to hearing from you.
