Uploading a file to a retail platform is straightforward. Making sure that file looks polished, renders correctly across every device and meets the technical requirements of every distributor is an entirely different matter. A book that passes through formatting carelessly arrives on shelves with problems that damage its credibility before a single reader has opened it.

At London Publishers we have formatted books across thousands of projects. We know precisely where things go wrong, what retailers flag during quality review and how to prepare your files so they are accepted first time across every platform you want to sell through.

We also understand that no two books are identical. A business title aimed at professionals requires a completely different formatting approach to a young adult fantasy novel. A heavily illustrated children’s book has different technical requirements to a straightforward self-help paperback. We adapt our process to your specific book rather than applying a generic template to every project we take on.
