Professional Book Design and Formatting for Print and Digital Readers
Readers judge a book before reading a word of it. The cover decides whether they click, and the interior decides whether they stay comfortable past chapter three. Liberty Book Publishings provides book design services covering covers, interiors, illustration, and the technical file preparation behind both, built separately for print and digital because the two have genuinely different requirements. Every creative decision is yours to approve, and your copyright never leaves you.

How Covers and Interiors Do Two Very Different Jobs
A cover has one job: getting a stranger to look closer. It works at thumbnail size, in a grid beside twenty other books, and it signals genre before anyone reads the title. The interior has the opposite job. Once a reader has committed, good typesetting becomes invisible and keeps them turning pages, while poor typesetting quietly fatigues them into stopping. Cramped margins, inconsistent chapter openings, and awkward spacing rarely get named in reviews. Readers just say the book was hard to get into.
Design at Liberty Book Publishings starts with specifications rather than aesthetics, because trim size, page count, and format determine what is possible before anyone opens a design file. Your ideas about the cover shape the direction, and where an instinct runs against genre convention you will be told why, with the decision still yours. Files are then built separately for print and digital, since a fixed page and a reflowing screen need different construction rather than different versions of one layout.
- Covers designed to work at full size and thumbnail
- Interiors laid out for sustained, comfortable reading
- Typefaces chosen for genre, legibility, and print behaviour
- Print files prepared with correct trim, margins, and bleed
- Digital files built to reflow across devices and settings
What Your Book Needs Depends on
What Kind of Book It Is
A black and white novel and a full-colour picture book share almost no production requirements. One needs readable typesetting and a competitive cover; the other needs illustration, spreads, and colour print files. Below are the services available, chosen around your format rather than bundled together.
Book Cover Design
Front, spine, and back built to your exact trim size and page count, in the file formats each retailer specifies. Genre research shapes the direction, since covers signal category before a reader registers the title. Solves the most expensive problem in self-publishing: a book that looks self-published in a search grid.
Book Formatting
Your interior prepared into publication-ready files, with chapter structure, headings, spacing, and page elements standardised throughout and built to your chosen platform’s requirements. Needed by any author uploading a manuscript rather than a manuscript file. Prevents the rejections and layout failures that follow an unformatted document.
Book Typesetting
Typeface, point size, leading, margins, running heads, folios, and chapter openings decided for a print interior. Matters most to authors writing long-form work that readers sit with for hours. Fixes the fatigue that makes a reader put a book down without knowing why.
eBook Formatting
Conversion into reflowable files with structural headings, working navigation, a linked contents page, and images handled to behave across screen sizes. Essential for anything with footnotes, tables, or illustrations. Stops the broken layouts that appear when a word processor export meets a Kindle.
Print Book Formatting
Interior files reconciled against physical production requirements: trim size, gutter and outer margins, bleed, image resolution, and page count. Required for paperback and hardcover editions. Catches the errors that only become visible once a proof arrives, at which point correcting them means paying twice.
Book Illustration
Original artwork produced for the book, from chapter openers and diagrams through to full illustration programmes. Style is agreed at sketch stage before final art begins. Suits nonfiction needing visual explanation and fiction where imagery carries part of the storytelling.
Children's Book Illustration
Character design, spreads, and page layout developed together, with text placement planned around the artwork rather than dropped onto it afterwards. Picture books are the most technically demanding format to produce, with binding-driven page counts and full-colour print requirements that shape the illustration from the first sketch.

From First Conversation to
Publishing-Ready Design Files
Design runs in a fixed order for a practical reason. Trim size and page count have to be settled before a spine can be measured, and the cover cannot be finalised until the interior is set. Working out of sequence means redoing finished work, so each stage closes with your approval before the next opens.
