Pull-quote callouts. Chapter summary boxes. Frameworks rendered as diagrams, not Word SmartArt. Charts that survive Kindle reflow. Business-book formatting that signals "I know what I'm doing" before the reader reads a paragraph.
Drop your manuscript and we run the same 30+ checks Amazon does, line by line, in under a minute. You get a clear /100 score, every failure point flagged, and the exact fix for each one. Whether you book us, do it yourself, or hire someone else — running this first means you don't pay for a service you didn't need.

Run the KDP Readiness Score →The format choice that matters most. We can deviate if your project needs it — but here's the working benchmark.
Acceptable alternatives: 5.5×8.5 in or 7×10 in · all are KDP-approved trim sizes
6×9 is the trad business-book trim — Daniel Pink, Adam Grant, Patrick Lencioni. It gives pull-quotes and callout boxes the breathing room they need, supports a 12pt body text comfortably, and shelves alongside HBR Press and Penguin Business without looking self-published.
Business books often have 10-40 frameworks/charts — each one redrawn vector-first, then exported per-format.
The six things that make business book formatting different from generic novel formatting.
Larger-type pull quotes lifted from the body. Set with a coloured rule, indented block, or full-width banner — your house style, applied consistently.
End-of-chapter summary panels ("The 3 things to remember") set as bordered boxes on print, semantic asides on EPUB. Renders cleanly on every device.
Your 2×2 matrix, your 5-step funnel, your concentric-circle model — drawn vector-first, exported at 600 DPI for print and SVG/PNG for EPUB. Not screenshotted from PowerPoint.
Bar charts and line graphs rendered as SVG (Kindle 9+ supports vector) so they stay crisp at any zoom. Fallback PNG for older Kindles.
Trad business books use endnotes-per-chapter. We set them as a chapter-end appendix on print, hyperlinked superscripts on EPUB. Both link both ways.
Author bio block, speaking-enquiry contact, link to your firm. Set up as discoverable back-matter so the book actually generates leads.
Whatever the book type, this is what every order includes.
KDP-compliant margins, mirrored gutters scaled to your page count, 0.125-inch bleed where needed, embedded fonts, 300 DPI image pre-flight, semantic page-break logic.
Optimised for every Kindle device including phone reading. Clean chapter recognition, working drop caps, scene-break ornaments, properly-linked TOC, semantic ordered/unordered lists.
Spine width auto-calculated from your final page count. Cover supplied to KDP-template spec for paperback, hardback or both. Full-bleed art tested against KDP's print profile.
Side-by-side viewer to comment on specific pages. Most books need none; complex non-fiction sometimes needs both. Additional rounds £19 each.
If KDP rejects your file for a formatting reason, we fix it free. We've never had a rejection — but the guarantee is the principle.
You send a Word file (or PDF, Google Docs, RTF, ODT, EPUB, plain text). We send back finished files. No software to install, no learning curve.
From £69 for print-ready PDF. £119 for print + Kindle. Picture-book and complete packages from £179.
