Books/DTP - from manuscript to CRC
Whether you have a raw manuscript for copy editing, a final proof that requires proofreading or a new book project to be designed for print, our services can be tailored to supply you with the product you need. We can undertake any one or all of the following elements of book/DTP production for your project:
Send us your files on disk (in PC format) and we will return the work to you or your publisher in the format the project requires - printed draft, camera-ready copy, TXT, DOC, XLS, P65, PDF, CDR, HTM, etc. By liaising with both authors and publishers we ensure that both accuracy and the highest standards are maintained.
