Novel Manuscript PDF Formatting

I have a completed novel in an editable source file that now needs professional interior formatting so it is press-ready as a single, polished PDF. The core requirement is to transform my raw text into a clean, consistently styled layout that feels at home alongside traditionally published fiction. Here is what I need from you: • Apply standard novel conventions—clean chapter openers, running headers or footers, proper margins, line spacing, widow-orphan control, and attractive scene-break markers. • Embed fonts and ensure all elements export flawlessly to a high-resolution PDF suitable for both digital distribution and print. • Check basic copy-fit issues (no stray blank pages, hyphenation problems, or misaligned paragraphs) so the book reads smoothly from front matter through back matter. • Provide the final press-quality PDF plus the updated working file (Word, InDesign, or your preferred layout tool) so future tweaks are possible. I did not lock myself into a specific style guide, so feel free to follow the best-practice standards you ordinarily use for fiction as long as the result is professional and bookstore-ready. If you have recent samples of novel interiors you’ve formatted, that will help me gauge fit quickly. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- - 5x8 inch book, Paperback - 100 pages
