Formatting

Formatting is the process of making the interior of your book look good for both your print version as well as your digital versions.
This is what makes your book ‘reader-friendly’.
You can have the best story or the best information in the world, but if your formatting is messed up, you will lose your reader because your book is hard to read.
Formatting is a very tedious, time consuming step by step process for checking each and every line of your book.
Items checked for during this process are fonts, font sizes, colors, font styles, line spacing, headings, page names and numbers, paragraphs, tabs, hyperlinks, breaks, images, symbols, margins, headers, footers, navigation and justification (just to name a few). The list is longer than that.
Here, again, is another area where you cannot afford to be complacent. You have to do your best to have an expert formatting job done on your work.
