Freelance Job: Typesetters For Academic Books
Hong Kong

26 Mar 2025
We seek skilled typesetters to format academic books of varying subjects and lengths for our publishing house. Texts range from 100 to 800 pages in A5 size, covering diverse disciplines including the social sciences, physical sciences, and medical sciences. Adhering to strict style guides and exemplars provided, tasks involve typesetting the body text as well as occasional manuscripts containing illustrations like pictures, graphs, and diagrams. Experience handling both written text and incorporating visual elements is preferable. Responsibilities include reformatting documents to our standards, ensuring consistent formatting, and proofreading to eliminate errors prior to publication. While our in-house team meets much of the production needs, increasing demand necessitates outsourcing portions of the work. The ideal freelancers will demonstrate meticulous attention to detail, an ability to learn specialized styles quickly, and manage projects independently from initial file receipt through final delivery. Payment will fall within a range of $70 to $190 per manuscript depending on length, complexity and specific guidelines of each individual title. Reliability, strong written communication and meeting deadlines are essential for consideration.
