We Decode the Retail-Ready Publishing Requirements So You Don’t Have To.

The Compatibility Check

We make sure your files play nice with every major printer and online retailer. No more mysterious errors or failed uploads.

The Bleed and Margin Fix

We check that your images and color go all the way to the edge of the page (that’s “bleed”) and that no text gets chopped off. This is key for print-ready book file upload.

The Color Space Conversion

We ensure your colors are perfect. RGB for screens, CMYK for print. So your vibrant blue cover doesn’t print as a dull purple.

The Font and Embedding Audit

We make sure all your fonts are properly embedded so they show up correctly for everyone, everywhere. No weird font substitutions.

The Metadata and ISBN Integration

We weave your book’s DNA—title, author, ISBN—directly into the file itself, so it’s identified correctly in every system.

The Final Proof and Validation

We don’t just send it. We test it. We generate a final proof and double-check it against all the pesky retail-ready publishing requirements so you can be 100% sure.

How a Perfect Retail-Ready File Upload Can Save You Time, Money, and Embarrassment.

Let’s be real. “Retail-ready” sounds boring. But it’s the difference between your book looking professional and looking like a DIY project that got rejected. Printers and online stores have very specific rules—retail-ready publishing requirements—for how files must be formatted. Get one tiny thing wrong, and your book gets rejected, delaying your launch and costing you money. We help by being the ultimate nitpickers. We know the exact specs for Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, Barnes & Noble Press, and all the others. We obsess over the details you shouldn’t have to, like DPI resolution and trim sizes, so your retail-ready book files are perfect every single time. Ultimately, this service is about peace of mind. It’s about knowing that the technical side of publishing is handled by experts, so you can focus on the fun parts, like marketing and connecting with readers. It’s the smartest way to ensure your book’s quality matches your effort.
