Generally Information

  1. This title setup fee include postage and packing of the fee author copies
  2. For over 300 pages, email our team for a free no-obligation quote.
  3. For volume discounts available on over 50 copies, please email our team for a free no-obligation quote.
  4. We do not print on the inside of the covers for this price. It is white paper stock on these sizes and price. 
  5. A book that is submitted for both paperback and hardback formats constitutes separate submissions and is billed separate setup charges.
  6. This set-up fee is NOT charged per print run, this is a one-off fee to set your title up on our systems and on our printers' systems 
  7. No commitment to ever buy more copies from us unless you buy an ISBN in which case you must buy a minimum of 2 copies to go to the Library and Archives Canada (LAC). Please note: Only one copy is required for books with a print run of less than 100 (including Print-on-Demand).
  8. If a title does not meet our submission standards, we may either reject the title or charge additional fees at the rate outlined in Additional and Custom Services; however, we will contact author and obtain pre-approval prior to completing or charging for any additional services.
  9. The average publishing timescale of three weeks is from the time of your submission of your print-ready files and payment to us, to you getting your first printed copy in your hands and your book being listed on Amazon. Please note, if we need to make your files print-ready in any way, then the publishing process will take somewhat longer than this.
  10. Using our self-publishing services means your acceptance of all our terms and conditions. So please ensure you read this before publishing with us.
