Pre-Press Design & Layout
Setting up
your book in a professional page
layout program can be a bit
intimidating. That’s why
123PrintFinder provides design
& layout services — at a
very affordable cost!
When you submit your files to a
printer, often they will find
things that need to be fixed or
adjusted before the file is
considered “print-ready.” Most
of the time, printing plants will
charge around $90/hour to fix
these problems!
That’s where 123PrintFinder can
help. As a print broker, we can
help you with your files before
sending them to a printing plant
— and our pre-press costs are
much, much less than the average
plant, often saving you 50% or
more!
Can I do my own design &
layout?
Yes, you can. And for many of our clients that may be
printing just 25 or 50 books for personal use, that is what we recommend to
save costs for them. (Click here for a list of acceptable file formats.)
However, if you are planning to sell your book in
bookstores, you may want to consider having the inside layout of the book done
professionally. This will enhance your credibility as you try to get bookstores
to accept your book for resale, and will ultimately sell more of your books!
