Book Composition / Case study
The Secret Man: Crime Thriller Novel Interior
Client: Trade Fiction Publisher
The challenge
The author had tight release dates across Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, and local bookstores, but was struggling with messy margins, uneven chapter breaks, and inconsistent running headers that failed digital preflight.
What we built
We established an elegant typographic hierarchy in Adobe InDesign, locking all lines to a strict baseline grid, crafting custom chapter opener displays, and adjusting optical margins for maximum reader immersion.
The result
Delivered press-certified PDF/X files and native packaged InDesign assets in 5 business days. The book passed every preflight check without a single warning and debuted on schedule.
