£45 ($60) when purchased as an add-on to any editing service, or £60 ($80) as a standalone service.


InDesign Ebook & Print Formatting

If your book needs a more bespoke approach, Adobe InDesign gives you full control over the layout of every single page in your book.

This is ideal for books containing a lot of images, tables, academic content, complex nonfiction layouts, or bespoke interior design requirements. It’s suitable for cookbooks, workbooks, picture books, children’s books, colouring books, memoirs that contain a lot of images, and more.

Projects are quoted individually based on the complexity of the manuscript and layout requirements.

This includes:

  • Bespoke formatting for each page in your book to your requirements.
  • Ebook formatting (EPUB)
  • Print formatting (PDF)
  • A review of the final files prior to delivery.
  • Guidance and support with interior layout design.
  • Ongoing support with uploading to your chosen publication platform.
  • Up to two revisions if you need anything amending.

Prices start from £150 ($200).

Please note: Any images that are intended for printing must be at least 300 DPI, and you must either own the images outright or have a commercial license for all images.

If you’re unsure whether your project is best suited to Vellum or InDesign, feel free to get in touch. I’m happy to discuss your book and recommend the most appropriate option.
