I am preparing an appx 131,000-word non-fiction business manuscript for self-publishing on Amazon KDP and need it professionally polished and laid out. I already have a detailed style guide that defines fonts, heading hierarchy, front- and back-matter order, and how tables and call-outs should appear; your job is to apply that look consistently across the entire book. Beyond visual formatting, I also need a thorough proofread to catch grammar slips, punctuation faults, and any lingering inconsistencies in terminology or references. Once both steps are complete, I want two press-ready files: one optimized for the Kindle eBook platform and one PDF sized to KDP’s paperback trim specifications, each with an active table of contents and proper pagination. You will also provide me a full pdf and docx file as a master copy Deliverables • Clean, proofread master document (Word or Google Docs) • KDP-compliant paperback interior PDF • Kindle-ready ePub or KPF file • Brief change log noting all editorial corrections Font Info: - Title Palatino serif 22pt - Headings: Palatino serif 17pt - Section Headings Palatino serif 14 pt - Sections have a line break (You can see it in my manuscript) Book Size and Margins: Size will be 6x9 Margins: To be set and reviewed prior to project completion Chapters must start on Recto- Right Hand Page White Paper RECAP: Body Font: Palatino Linotype Size: 11 pt Line Spacing: 1.15 First-Line Indent: 0.3" Spacing Before/After Paragraphs: 0 pt Margins (Mirror): Inside: 1.0" Outside: 0.75" Top: 0.75" Bottom: 0.75" Paper: White Chapters: Start on right-hand page (recto) FREELANCER MUST HAVE: Uses Adobe InDesign (not just Word) Has experience formatting 300+ page nonfiction Can show interior spreads (not screenshots — spreads) Understands trade trim (6x9) Can supply press-ready PDF (with bleed settings) I’ll supply the manuscript and style guide upon award, and I’m happy to answer workflow questions as they arise.
