Book Packaging Services

Do you have a book you plan to publish on Lulu or CreateSpace?

Let our experienced publishing professionals help you create a great product!

Lulu.com and CreateSpace.com make it possible for you to easily produce printed books and make them available for sale.

But will anyone want to buy it?

Professionally formatted books sell more copies. Your book might have an interesting theme and be written well, but if it looks like it was typed in MS Word and thrown together by an amateur with a copy machine, it will not sell very many copies.

You've written and revised and finally have a book that is ready to be printed and sold. You used Microsoft Word or similar software. It looks pretty good, but not quite like the books you see in the bookstore and online at Amazon. Why? Because programs like MS Word, WordPerfect, and OpenOffice are intended to create documents and format them for business use. This kind of software is easy to learn and easy to use, but limited in its ouput. Your book, as it is in Word, will never look like a printed book from a large publisher because Word is not intended to perform that task.

MS Word output can be tweaked a bit so that it looks presentable, but it will never look as good as a book that is professionally typeset. Publishing your book is a waste of time and energy if nobody wants it. Take the extra step to make your project look as good as it can!

Let our experienced publishing professionals take your book to the next level.

Three Pyramids Publishing is now offering book packaging. We take your "almost there" manuscript and create a finished book that is professionally edited and typeset. The output files we send you can be uploaded directly to one of the print-on-demand websites like Lulu or CreateSpace and immediately printed and offered for sale. We have worked with commercial book printers for more than 20 years - put our expertise to work for your book!

We can edit your book for clarity and grammar, or to reduce its length. Your manuscript is spell-checked and we proofread it from start to finish.

Your book will be formatted with professional typesetting software using appropriate fonts and placing illustrations as needed. (We do NOT use MS Word to format your output.) We design the book interior to complement your specific book; we don't use pre-made templates. The output is formatted for the correct binding size as required by the printer. We can include an accurate Table of Contents or an Index. We can also create a cover.

The output that we send you can be uploaded directly to Lulu or CreateSPace (without needing any further work) and printed immediately. Your book will be available for orders as soon as you approve the proof copy that Lulu or CreateSpace sends you.

YOU own the output, and YOU handle the printing. You can order author's copies that you can sell to friends or in the back of the room at your speaking venues. Lulu or CreateSpace makes your book available on their website, and it will be listed on Amazon.com. These websites sell your book, collect the payment from the customer, and remit a healthy percentage to you.

It's important to contact us early. We can advise you about artwork and illustrations, how your input files should be prepared, and advice about marketing your book after it's printed.

What Does It Cost?

Book formatting services start at $100. We charge only for services you specifically request - rest assured that you'll pay only for those services you need, and never for extra services that you won't use. We offer quick turn-around time on your project.

We can work with any budget!

Payment is through PayPal.

Book Formatting and Typesetting

We can take your manuscript file produced by your word processing software and set it in type. The output will be exactly the same as books from the largest publishing companies!
