What exactly do you get and how much does it cost?

File conversion.

Word (DOC, DOCX, RTF) or ODT conversion to EPUB. The original file will also be converted into an optimized DOCX file for Smashwords. In total, you will receive three formatted files: EPUB (with cover)*, EPUB (without cover), and an optimized DOCX file. The book cover has to be supplied by the writer; Manuscript Mentoring does not design book covers.

Front Matter

Your formatted files will include title and copyright pages.

A linked table of contents.

Your files will all include a linked table of contents. Certain platforms, such as Amazon's Kindle Direct Publishing, require uploaded ebooks to have one.

Text consistency.

We ensure that the font type and size of your ebook are consistent throughout. This also extends to italics and boldface lettering.

Space and paragraph consistency.

We ensure that there are no double spaces between words or sentences; we also remove excess blank lines within or after paragraphs.

Chapter breaks.

We ensure that chapter breaks are properly formatted.

Lightning-fast turnaround time.

Our turnaround time is just 3 business days. Most ebook formatting companies have turnaround times of between 7 and 14 business days.

Excellent follow-up support.

We also offer follow-up support and prompt communication. Clients that struggle with any part of the ebook upload process—on any platform—can get in touch and we’ll help resolve the issue.
