I’m preparing a series of Christian nonfiction titles—faith–based, Bible-teaching works—and I need each manuscript professionally typeset for Amazon KDP in both paperback and Kindle eBook formats. The look I’m after is clean, professional, and easy to read, with Garamond at roughly 12 pt for the body text. Every book must be delivered press-ready for the chosen trim size and pass KDP’s pre-flight checks without revision requests. That means consistent chapter headings, paragraph spacing, margins, page numbering, plus fully-matched front and back matter (title page, copyright, dedication, table of contents, author bio). Each chapter should open on a fresh page and maintain a visually harmonious flow throughout. Because I have several books in the pipe...
