Waiting List Policy
As I offer these designs purely as a hobby and free of charge, I manage requests through a waiting list system. Once you’ve reached out, I’ll inform you of your position on the list and provide an estimated timeline for when I’ll be able to start on your project.

Author’s and artist’s Permission
Before beginning the typesetting process, written proof of permission from the fanfiction author must be provided by showing me written proof (i.e. screenshot). This is essential to ensure that I have the legal right to format their work. Without this proof, I cannot proceed, as I do not want to be held accountable for any copyright issues.
This rule also applies to any artists whose work you wish to use for the cover or interior design. Written permission from the artist must be obtained before their art can be included in the project.

Design Choices
Once permission is confirmed, you will be required to choose the design elements for the book. This includes:
-
Font Selection: You will need to select your preferred font for the body text and headings.
-
Text Lay-out: The overall lay-out of the text, including margins, alignment, and spacing, will be based on your preferences.
-
Page Header and Number Options: Choose the style and format of the headers.
These choices will dictate the design direction for the entire book, and once finalized, I will implement them accordingly.

Non-Profit Agreement
I offer my typesetting services for free, as I do not wish to profit from another creator’s hard work. However, if a stock image is required for the cover design, payment will be necessary for licensing fees related to that image. Details about cover design and stock photo options can be found in the cover section.
