III. Design and Production

Book cover design, layout and printing, from manuscript to finished copies.

Questions authors ask us

How much does it cost to print a book in Nigeria?

Printing costs depend on page count, paper, binding, size and quantity. We quote each print run separately, so you see the printing cost apart from our fees.

Can you format my book for Amazon KDP?

Yes. We prepare print and ebook files to the specifications of the platforms you plan to use.

Do I own my cover design?

You receive the final files for your book, and we make sure every image and font used is properly licensed for it.

How many copies should I print?

There is no single answer. We help you decide based on your launch plans, budget and where you will sell the book.

My book is not edited yet. Can you still help?

Yes. Our Complete package includes editing, so your manuscript is ready before design begins.

How long does production take?

It depends on the book and the services you choose. We agree the timeline with you at the start.
