Ebook Formatting That Actually Works for Readers

Just because it’s pretty, doesn’t mean it’s readable when it comes to ebooks

Stop chasing the impossible dream of “perfect display everywhere” and start offering ebooks that readers can actually use, customize, and enjoy on any device.

Wasted Screen Space

“It drives me nuts when publishers set large margins so it looks pretty like the print book, and I can’t make sense of my screen.”

Solution: Responsive margins that adapt to screen size and reader preferences, maximizing usable reading area while maintaining readability.

Broken Drop Caps

“I detest when publishers use drop caps! They frequently break at large font sizes. Sometimes the letter moves off the screen entirely.”

Solution: Skip problematic decorative elements or implement them in ways that gracefully degrade across all font sizes and devices.

Unexpected Font Changes

“I encountered one [app] that turned all my headings a sickly vomit green color!”

Solution: Clean, semantic formatting that looks good even when reader apps override your styles. Function over fancy.

WHY HIRE A DESIGNER?

Design Philosophy

Non-fiction readers want professional ebooks which is why I design for how it will perform, not how it looks.

Read-First Formatting

Ebooks need to work reliably across platforms and adapt to reader preferences which is where many authors fall flat.

Stand Out Professionally

Stand Out from cookie-cutter ebooks with a professionally designed book that acts as your business card.

I format ebooks to work beautifully for every reader, on every device, with every preference.
