Preparing your manuscript for complete book translation
Translating a full-length book requires organized project planning. Authors are encouraged to prepare their manuscript according to these guidelines prior to project kickoff:
- Complete manuscript draft: Provide final, fully edited manuscript files in DOCX, RTF, or OpenDocument formats.
- Author overview & style notes: Share character glossaries, world-building terminology, preferred authorial voice, and narrative perspective details.
- Sample chapter evaluation: Request a trial sample translation of a key chapter to establish style consensus before full manuscript translation begins.
- Front & back matter copy: Include book titles, preface, dedication, index, foreword, author biography, and back-cover blurb copy.
- Target publishing platform: Indicate whether the finished book will be published as a physical print volume, digital eBook (EPUB/Kindle), or academic textbook.
