Publishing services for indie authors
We take your finished, edited manuscript and turn it into publish-ready files: a print-ready PDF and a reflowable EPUB, formatted to professional standards.
It’s a hands-on service, run by someone who publishes books the same way you do. No faceless tool, no vanity press.

- No rights transfer: you keep all rights to your work.
- No royalties or revenue sharing: you keep 100% of all sales.
- No ongoing obligations beyond the purchase.
- Innatraea LLC is listed as publisher of record, as the ISBN system requires.
- One ISBN, one edition: each is permanently assigned to one title, author and format.
- No refunds once an ISBN is assigned in Bowker’s system.
- Assigning an ISBN is not an endorsement or a quality certification.
These follow standard practice for ISBN imprint services. The full agreement comes with your purchase.
