TUTORIAL: How to Format Your Book With Scribus |Typesetting A Novel | Format Your Paperback for FREE

In this video, I will show you how to set up Scribus to typeset your book. Typesetting, also known as book formatting, is one of the critical sets in preparing to self-publish your book. Scribus is free, open-source software. I have used it to typeset multiple books of my own and for my clients. It is a little clunky at first, but this step-by-step tutorial will show you exactly how to do this for yourself. https://www.scribus.net/ How to typeset your paperback book in Scribus: Video Start: 00:00 https://youtu.be/pvYq82sv93E Document Set Up: 6:01 https://youtu.be/pvYq82sv93E?t=362 Master Page Set Up: 13:16 https://youtu.be/pvYq82sv93E?t=796 Styling for Paragraphs & Characters (Including Drop Caps): 20:46 https://youtu.be/pvYq82sv93E?t=1224 Saving As A Template: 25:40 https://youtu.be/pvYq82sv93E?t=1541 Adding Text - First Pages Of Your Novel (Including Title, Copyright, Other Works, Table of Contents, and Dedication): 26:55 https://youtu.be/pvYq82sv93E?t=1615 Adding Page Numbers: 45:48 https://youtu.be/pvYq82sv93E?t=2749 Print Settings: 55:37 https://youtu.be/pvYq82sv93E?t=3332 https://www.ingramspark.com/hubfs/downloads/file-creation-guide.pdf ** I'm no longer offer formatting services.
