Cover Design
Book Cover Design
Book cover design represents our passion and our core service. As the cover serves as your book’s first impression on potential readers, it’s vital that it conveys the essence of your book in a captivating and alluring way. Our team of designers have the knowledge and experience to know what works and what doesn’t, skillfully combining simplicity, meaning and beauty into a cover that will do justice to the text it surrounds (and that’ll hopefully have it flying off the shelves!).
Formatting and Layout
Almost as important as the book cover, we ensure that interior of your book is up to standard, whether it’s an eBook, paperback or hardcover. The interior layout is designed according to international best practices by our specialist book formatters. All eBook files are thoroughly tested for use on all eBook readers to ensure the highest quality, and final print files are suitable for any printing service. From manuscript to final material, we will guide you through every step.
