The page format is to be confirmed with the printing house, approximately 145/148 × 210 mm. There are simple markings: sections, POV, and dividers ***. Styles, page numbering, mirrored margins need to be set up, check for any technical issues, and prepare a PDF for the printing house. Please specify a fixed cost for the entire project, the number of included revisions, and examples of previously laid out books.

Author: Olena Polkhovych Language: Ukrainian Form of cooperation: freelance / project work About the project I have two ready texts of therapeutic fairy tales for children: 1. “Polly's Umbrella and Her First Rain” — a tale about overcoming fear, trust, and inner silliness. 2. “Brave Stripe in the Land of Shadows” — a tale about overcoming night fears through friendship and light. Both books already have a black layout with files (created in Canva), ready for final editing before printing and online sales (Amazon KDP, Etsy, Ukrainian market). What is needed 1. Literary editing (Ukrainian language) • Proofreading of spelling, punctuation, style • Preserving the author's voice and rhythm of the tale • Checking for age appropriateness (audience 3-7 years) 2. Illustrations • Evaluation of existing illustrations (Canva) — whether they need refinement or if a new set should be ordered in a single professional style • If necessary — creating a new set of illustrations (12-20 spreads per book) • Style: warm, child-friendly, suitable for printing (300 dpi, CMYK) 3. Layout/design of the template • Choosing a font that is easy for children to read and expressive for printing • Professional layout for printing (bleed margins 3mm, correct page sizes) • Preparing separate files for printing (PDF Print) and for e-books Format for proposal submission Please send: • Portfolio (children's books, if available) • Estimated cost for each type of work separately (editing / illustrations / layout) • Estimated completion times

There is a scanned document, and we need help creating a format that closely resembles it, in order to properly arrange the texts and a couple of graphic elements.

I am commissioning the layout of a jubilee book with footnotes, photos, and lists of people. Approximately 260-280 pages in A5 or B5 format.
