Typesetting formats

"Before You Publish" by Tim Wourms, President of publishing for CSN Books and Legacy Line Publishing, helps authors bring their books booksto the Marketplace. You can download your free copy by going to csnbooks.com.
At CSN Books and Legacy Line Publishing, your book is proofed at least twice, once after the edit and once after typesetting. These proofs are performed by two separate proofers.
The Formatting of Your Book
Typesetting is converting the “typewriter” look of a manuscript into lines and pages of type that make it look like a professional book.
A well typeset book must meet the industry standards concerning leading, kerning, headers and footers, and these areas are critical to the success of your book (however, it is not critical for you to understand these terms). Typesetting is often the most ignored phase of a book’s creation process by self-publishers, and even by many subsidy publishers. It is frustrating for us here at CSN Books and Legacy Line publishing to constantly see the poor typesetting jobs our authors books have received from other publishers. We are constantly having to undo the work of others just to bring the book up to a level that is acceptable within the publishing industry.
