Book Typesetting & Internal Layout

Get your print books and eBooks internal pages designed and produced in the right formats for publication.

Book Internal Page Design

A professionally designed book interior makes your writing easier to read, more enjoyable to hold and more credible from the very first page.

At The Rural Publishing Company, we create clean, polished book layouts for Australian authors who want their manuscript transformed into a professional, print-ready book.

From novels and memoirs to children’s books, business books and family histories, we make sure your pages look intentional, consistent and ready for publication.

1. What file formats do I need?

Print books require a PDF file, with each individual page designed correctly. You will need page numbers, headers and footers, plus a table of contents etc.

eBooks require an EPUB file, to ensure it is ‘reflowable’ so it automatically adjusts to different screen sizes.

2. Can you just produce my eBook?

Yes, we certainly can. You might have a full length eBook, or we can even produce your lead magnets or mini eBooks.

3. Why can't I just use a Word Document?

While you can certainly write your book in a Word Document (and submit it to us in that format), uploading this directly to Amazon as an eBook won’t give you the professional results you need.

You also can’t print from a Word Document – you would need to turn it into a PDF – however, be careful doing this yourself, as printers have very specific and often complicated requirements.
