To All Bidders,
I would like to further clarify how many links (to images etc.) there are in each book so that you can gain a better idea of potential workload.
Book 1 - 120 plus images
Book 2 - 120 plus images and a dozen or so tables.
Book 3 - 220 plus images
If you need
to revise your bids please do so asap.

Dear Sir/Madam,
My expertise is digital publishing, both ebook in multiple formats and print-on-demand. However, traditional publishing is also my line. Your books will be reformatted manually fast and clean. It's my policy to complete jobs with quality, care, and on time.
Since you
books contain graphics, they'll be more complicated than text-only books but I'd completed the tasks before. You also mentioned that you want your books can be read on multiple devices. It would be better if you'll have your books in more formats than epub and Kindle requires specific format of its
own kind. I can complete these requirements easily.
I'm waiting for your reply.
Best regard,

Hi,
You stated that you wanted your books to be read on all reader devices like the Kindle and the iPad. I imagine the Sony reader and others are in the list. Most of these readers will read a standard ePub format but the Kindle is a device of its own and will have to be converted to another
format. I would include that format conversion in my bid.
I bid your project at the mid range for your budget, because you haven't stated how many graphics and other elements there are in each book. Once I know the amount of each book, I can give you a better idea of what it will cost to make
the conversion. If there are only a few graphics, tables and other elements the price can be reduced. If there is a substantial amount of these elements, I may consider rasing the fee.
I have benn building books for 21 years for press and electronic distribution for many publishers large to
self publishing. With my experience I know I can convert your books without any problems.
Please see my information on this site and also my website at book-comp.com for more information about me and many samples of my work.
I look forward to hearing from you and creating a smooth
transition for your books to eBook.
Thank you,
Rick Soldin
