Children’s Book Layout

HOW OUR CHILDREN’S FORMATTING/LAYOUT PACKAGES WORK

Stage 1 – Fill out the formatting questionnaire.
This gives us all the information we require about your book, including the technical aspects such as trim size and who you are printing or publishing through. You can also include a general outline of your story so that our formatting team can choose fonts and styles relevant to your genre or book.
* If you choose a package which includes paperback formatting, then we’ll start with the paperback first before moving on to the eBook.

Stage 2 – Booking Your Package
Purchase your package and choose any of our fantastic extras. Once your payment clears, and we receive all necessary information/illustrations you’ll be given a start date. This is the date we begin working on your formatting.
* Please note; a 50% deposit is required at time of booking and we can’t start your order until we receive all necessary information and order requirements including the formatting questionnaire. * All images/illustrations supplied must be a minimum of 300dpi and it is the author’s responsibility to supply images which are suited to their desired trim size.

Stage 3 – Proofing
We’ll send over the formatted file/s for you to approve the layout and design. You’ll receive the first proof round within ten business days of your order beginning.

Stage 4 – Revisions
If any revisions need to be made, we’ll make those changes and re-send the files for your final approval. We include free formatting/layout/design revisions with all of our formatting packages until you’re satisfied.
* Please note; You’ll receive the first 10 proofing edits or author changes free, but after that, any typos/edits/changes made by the author are charged at $1 per edit per format.

Stage 5 – Final Files
Once the formatting has been approved, we’ll then complete any and all other extras/formats which you have purchased with your children’s formatting/layout package. Then once the final balance has been paid, we’ll send you the final files ready for uploading to your printer.

NOTE: If the above packages do not meet your needs, we can create a custom package for you. Please contact us through our contact page to discuss your custom package.

Children’s books are extremely rewarding, but they take a lot of work when it comes to getting them formatted, illustrated, published and ready to list on book sites like Amazon, iBook’s, Ingram Spark, and may other book publishing sites. It takes a lot to go through a children’s book and ensure that all the text and illustrations work well together and flow. If you don’t layout your children’s book correctly, it will result in a poor reader experience which can lead to bad reviews and poor sales.

If you are ready to create your children’s book, then look no further!
