Author Alterations & Corrections Service – Add-On

Even after a professional edit, you may still need to make a few text changes to your manuscript. To make these additional edits easier and hassle-free, Xlibris offers the Author Alterations and Corrections add-on service.

Any changes or edits to your text while your book is still in production is considered an Author Alteration. If you think it is best to submit a new manuscript because of the large number of edits, you can opt for our revision services for black and white and full colour books .

    Black & White Publishing service features and specifications:
  • Base fee of $40 for each round of corrections to your book’s interior layout or text, plus $3.00 per alteration
  • Base fee of $40 for each round of corrections to your book’s cover
  • Includes additional galley or cover proof (whichever is appropriate)
  • Clear instructions and information included with galley proof delivery
  • Alteration of production files and final printing files to reflect changes
    Full-Colour Publishing service features and specifications:
  • Base fee of $40 for each round of corrections to your book’s interior layout or text, or cover
  • Each additional correction within a round of corrections costs an additional $3

  • Ability to make text edits, colour and font changes, and image and design alterations

Note:
Because your book exists electronically, you can change or update your content even after it has been published. So if new information comes to light or details change, you can make sure that your work is kept up-to-date. Corrections requested after publication are classified as post-publication revision services. They are available for a fee of $449 for black and white books and $549 for full colour books when you submit a manuscript that has already been updated with your revisions. Different fees may apply if you send us a list of your revisions and have our design team implement them in your book. Please consult your Author Services Representative first before ordering.
