Book Formatter for Amazon KDP & IngramSpark
Worldwide
We are looking for an experienced and detail-oriented book formatter/typesetter to prepare our manuscript for publication on Amazon KDP and IngramSpark (both print and digital formats). The ideal candidate has a strong command of Adobe InDesign and a proven track record of producing error-free, publication-ready files that pass platform reviews on the first try without formatting rejections. Project Scope & Deliverables: • Print Typesetting (Paperback & Hardcover): • Professional interior layout and typography design. • Precise mirror margins, gutter width calculations for binding, and strict bleed verification. • Thorough orphan and widow control, running headers, footers, and clean page numbering. • eBook Formatting (ePub): • Validated, clean ePub file compatible with major e-readers. • Fully clickable Table of Contents (ToC) and correct heading hierarchy. Required Qualifications: • Proven experience formatting books for both KDP and IngramSpark. • Expert-level proficiency in Adobe InDesign (no automated conversion tools for print layouts). • Deep understanding of industry publishing standards (trim sizes, gutter spacing, fonts, resolution). • Portfolio or samples of previous interior book formatting work. To Apply, Please Provide: • A brief overview of your experience with KDP and IngramSpark formatting. • Links to samples or a portfolio showing your interior typesetting work. • Your estimated flat-rate or hourly rate for this project, along with your estimated turnaround time. Budget: The listed budget of $10 is a placeholder only (Upwork requirement). I am absolutely willing to pay more and negotiate a fair price based on your experience, skills, and the scope of work. Please include your proposed rate in your application.
