What interior formatting includes

  • Chapter and section headings with consistent styles
  • Typography: fonts, spacing and paragraph styles
  • Contents, front and back matter
  • Images, page breaks and scene breaks
  • Files prepared for ebook and digital publishing

Why formatting matters

Poor formatting makes a good book hard to read. Consistent headings, clean spacing and working navigation keep readers reading, especially on e-readers.

Frequently asked questions

What is book formatting?

Book formatting is the design of a book's interior: how text, headings, images and pages are laid out so the book reads well.

Do I need to format my book before editing?

No. Editing comes first. Formatting is done once the text is final.
