Layout your book

Any way you want

Any time you want

As many times as you want

Coming Soon (Autumn 2025)

Layout your book completely on your own and however you want: there are many options to choose from to personalize your book (or your books!)

Create the epub and ready-for-print pdf files: and you can create them directly using Word, without the need to use an external editor. Word (or another program – even Open Source – capable of generating .docx files) is therefore the only resource necessary for the creation of your book.

Make all the changes you want: add new chapters, correct any typos... Simply relaunch the procedure and your book will be immediately available in the new version.

Publish your book with the channels you prefer: print it yourself, at a printer, or rely on one of the many Self Publishers platforms, such as Amazon KDP. The files (both pdf and epub) are compatible with all platforms and you will not have to pay additional royalties.

Do everything yourself, without having to learn to use complicated tools and – above all – buy new software or pay other professionals.

Experiment and then decide independently which page format you want to assign to your book, without having to pay a professional for additional tests or tests that deviate from their usual standards. You’ll also be able to take a look at what your book will look like, without needing it to be finished.

Assign the same format to all your books, in order to maintain homogeneity within your editorial production.

Get a clean and optimized epub format: remember that the more optimized your ebook is, the higher the royalties you will receive.

With Manuzio you can insert as many images as you want into your book, as well as notes and quotes. Manuzio is the ideal tool for layouting fiction and non-fiction books.

Important: With Manuzio you can insert as many images as you want and attribute a description and source to them. But Manuzio is not suitable for the creation of magazines or books with complex layouts. In these cases, it is still preferable to use software like Adobe InDesign or Affinity Publisher.

Ready to design your book? With Manuzio it’s fast and easy. And with a super-competitive price you will get a great result!

Examples

There are many options to chose from, but in most cases you will need to set only a few of them. Here are some examples:

You can set the page size as you want! Dimensions, margins (with the difference between internal and external margins) are completely up to you, without the constraint of having to use predefined cage formats.

Furthermore, you can also choose multiple sizes for the same book. Simply create a new print profile and Manuzio will create an output for each profile. This way, if you have one size for hardcover and one for paperback, you can propagate changes to the manuscript across all versions with one click.

Manuzio has more than 20 types of positioning for images. You can also include a caption and attribute the image.

Also, the image will be turned to black and white if the book is black and white. For the epub version the image will instead be optimized so as to create a optimized file.

Automatic index creation. Furthermore, in the docx file, the chapters may not even be numbered: Manuzio will number them automatically.

You can also set the presence of prefaces/afterwords, so as to separate them in the index.

Obviously the dropcaps couldn’t be missing! Choose how many lines they should use, how big they should be, and the font!

It will also be possible to choose how many words to put in small capitals after the first letter.

Do you have any notes inside your book? No problem! Manuzio will number them automatically.

Choose the decorative line you want (if you want to use any). Simply upload the image and insert dashes into your docx file, so you’re free to experiment with different styles.

Automatic use of ligatures and automatic word hyphenation (even in the epub).

You can use large quotes to give emphasis to your quotes. (Coming soon)

You can customize the first page however you want: just upload a pdf to replace it. It is very useful if you want to recall the font or some elements from the cover.
