Summary
FAQs
What do you need to begin the layout?
I require a final, edited manuscript and your desired trim size. If your book includes images, I need the high-resolution files (300 DPI). I also need to know your publishing platform so I can build the file to their specific technical requirements.
What is a "Design System" in book design?
It's a set of rules tailored for your book's content. It ensures that every element (page numbers, headings, and images) stays aligned throughout the entire manuscript. This creates a polished, consistent look that makes layouts easy to navigate.
Can you handle books with many images or charts?
Yes. I specialize in complex editorial layouts, including Art and Coffee Table Books. I design flexible systems that allow images and text to interact cleanly while maintaining a consistent structure.
Do you manage typesetting for different languages?
I work fluently in English, Spanish, German, and Swedish. I understand the technicalities of each language, such as how Spanish text expands compared to English, and I adjust the layout to maintain perfect visual balance.
Will the final file be ready for KDP or IngramSpark?
Yes. I perform a full technical pre-press check on every project. You will receive a production-ready PDF with the correct bleeds, margins, and font embedding required by all major global publishing platforms.
