How Formatting Works
What to submit:
- Your final, proofread manuscript file
- Any suggestions you have for fonts, layout, etc.
- Your ISBN, if you have one. We recommend that you obtain an ISBN before beginning this service, since your ISBN must appear on your copyright page as per Lulu’s Mandatory Distribution Requirements.
After purchasing a service, Lulu will send you instructions on how to select your page design template and how to submit your file.
