Direct answer
Book formatting cost depends on the complexity of the interior and the formats required. A simple novel is usually less complex than a book with tables, images, footnotes, recipes, exercises or specialist typography.
Print layout
Print formatting includes trim size, margins, headings, page numbering, front matter, chapter openings and printer-ready PDF output.
Ebook formatting
Reflowable ebooks behave differently from print pages. The file should be tested for navigation, headings, images and device compatibility.
Ask for format-specific files
Confirm which final files are included and whether later text corrections or revised editions are charged separately.
