Transposing your printed literature to digital format

Transposing your printed literature to digital format

First of all, we need you to send us the book. Don’t worry, we understand your book may be delicate and need some special TLC but we promise you, you’ll get it back in exactly the condition in which it was received.

We don't use optical character recognition software (OCR). It is notorious for producing errors which can be time consuming and expensive to correct.

Our process uses a high-grade optical process that does away with the need to flatten out a book in a scanner, which may have a detrimental effect on the integrity of the binding, especially with legacy novels.

We only do works of literature in the written format e.g. novels, short stories, poetry collections etc.

We are not a digitising agency. Our job is to hand you back files you can edit yourself with a word processor, not an archive PDF or digital image.

Because our transposing technology is unique to us we can remove a lot of the expense and overhead associated with scanning and digiting agencies.

The final product is your novel in .DOC, .PDF and .TXT formats. The .TXT format is ideal for creating Amazon KDP eBooks using Kindle Create.

Our six-step process to transposing your book

1Arrival

On receipt we'll examine the condition of the packaging and contents at which point we'll take a series of photographs which we'll email back to you for confirmation to proceed.

2Digitising

Our unique high-grade optical process converts the contents of the book into the required format for the next stage.

3Transposing

This is where the magic happens. Your printed novel is now a digital file available for editing with a word processor app.

4Editing

Here we check the whole document for transposing error and general mistakes where the technology may have bombed!

5Formatting

The DOC version comes in two standard book print sizes: paperback @ 128mm x 192 mm and hardback 156mm x 234mm. We include PDF versions of both these two. The .TXT format is ideal for creating Amazon KDP eBooks using Kindle Create.

6Returning

We'll get your novel back to you by secure courier or Royal Mail recorded delivery.
