Reprint your book

Authors of out-of-print books can choose to bring their work back to life. We are able to reprint your book by scanning each page as a graphic and recombining them in order and stored as a file on our system.

We are able to make limited changes to a book, for example replacing preliminary pages from supplied Word files.

You must be able to supply two copies of the book; one copy will be destroyed to scan while the other will be used as a reference guide.

Your existing book cover can be scanned & reproduced almost exactly, or you can take advantage of our professional book cover design service.

This service is priced per page scanned and on sight of the original cover, please contact us for a quote.

Please note that when you decide to reprint your book, you are stating that you legally have rights to publish it. You are also asserting that you have rights to the text, page design and book cover design and you agree to Fast-Print terms and conditions of business. We strongly advise you to obtain a signed revision of rights letter from the previous publisher, for your own protection.

BOOK COVER DESIGN!

Our graphic design team is able to create high impact covers for your work at a fraction of the cost of traditional design studios.

If you have a photograph, a particular graphic, or a distinct idea for your book cover, please submit a full brief with your project. Alternatively, if you have no ideas regarding your cover, our team has excellent experience in this field and can assess the content of your book and design a book cover that will complement your text and subject matter.

Prices start from £129, inclusive of any royalty free stock images used and are quoted accurately upon receipt of your book cover design brief. Please contact us for further information.

An additional service which Fast-Print is now able to offer is to convert your manuscript from hard copy or handwritten form into a professional page layout format.
