I have a completed fiction manuscript that now needs to be professionally typeset for print distribution. The core requirement is clear, consistent styling of every chapter heading and subheading so the book reads smoothly and looks polished from start to finish. The raw text is ready in Microsoft Word; once layout begins I will supply any additional notes on trim size and margins. I’m comfortable with you working in Adobe InDesign—or a comparable professional layout tool—as long as you can return both the final print-ready PDF and the editable source file. Deliverables: • Print-ready PDF that meets standard printer specifications • Editable layout file (INDD or equivalent) with styles correctly applied to all chapter headings and subheadings If you have recent samples of fiction interiors you’ve set, feel free to share a couple of pages so I can see your style choices. Looking forward to giving this story a clean, reader-friendly look together.
