Submit Your Book Online
We offer a simple way to submit digital files (pages and custom cover) formatted exactly as they appear on your computer. Our FREE PDF Creator software eliminates the hassles of gathering individual files, checking for linked files and fonts, and purchasing expensive software.
To get your book into production, we need a completed Book Order Form (PDF 44kb), hard copies of your pages and cover, initial 1/3 payment, and any other necessary forms or material. Please send this to us at the same time you submit your files online. We will not begin production until we receive everything. Use our checklist (PDF 73kb) to ensure your order is complete.
Creating Pages
To get started, download Submitting Press-Ready Pages (PDF 376kb) to ensure your material is accurate. To assist you, we provide pre-built page templates created for Word®, Publisher®, and Quark®. Do not put chapters, sections, etc., into multiple files. All pages of your book must be in one file.
Converting Page File into a PDF
Once your page file is ready, download and install our PDF Creator software.

After installation, follow these 3 easy steps:

2. PDF Creator will then launch a preview of your file so you can thoroughly check for errors.
3. If the preview looks accurate, click "Accept" to send your file directly to our server.
Creating & Uploading Your Cover
To create your cover, download Submitting a Press-Ready Cover (PDF 448kb) for cover specifications. When your cover is ready, use our FREE Cover Upload Tool, which provides a safe and secure method for submitting your cover file directly to our art department.
