Manuscript Formatter

From Word doc to bookstore-quality — in minutes.

Upload your manuscript. Bookmint sets the margins, the gutter, the type, and the page numbers — to Amazon KDP's exact rules.

Format my manuscript.docx, .rtf, .txt, .pdf

Drag the handle — the same manuscript, before and after.

Two looks. Both bookstore-grade.

Pick Normal for clean and quiet, or Professional for drop caps, styled chapter openers, and a designed table of contents.

NormalIncluded

Clean type, correct margins, quiet page numbers. Nothing between the reader and the words.

ProfessionalIncluded

Drop caps, chapter ornaments, running heads — the details readers notice without knowing why.

Table of contentsAuto-built

Chapter names and page numbers stay correct through every edit — in print and in the ebook.

Why KDP rejects files

Four numbers cause most rejections. Bookmint sets all four correctly, every time — then checks the finished file like Amazon does.

Margins & gutter

The inside margin must grow with your page count — or words fall into the fold.

Bleed

Anything that touches the page edge needs 0.125" extra — or white slivers appear.

Embedded fonts

Fonts must travel inside the PDF. Word usually leaves them out.

Spine math

Spine width = pages × paper thickness. Get it wrong and the cover won't fit.

Checking…

One book. Every screen and every press.

The same manuscript becomes a print interior, a Kindle ebook, and a large-screen layout — from one upload.

“I spent two weeks fighting Word's margins. Bookmint did it in four minutes — and the drop caps made my chapters feel like a hardback.”
