What each book formatting credit includes and how pricing for book formatting credits works

Credit redemption and credit packs

Buy credits up front (they never expire). Redeem credits per manuscript; larger packs reduce per-credit cost and simplify budgeting for multiple titles.

AI-driven auto-formatting

Vana detects chapters, front/back matter, and applies consistent styles automatically — reducing credits used on manual adjustments and speeding turnaround.

Custom trim sizes and typographic control

Choose trim size, fonts, spacing, drop caps, and widow/orphan control. Complex layout choices may affect credit usage; our estimator previews credit cost before you format.

Optional Human Fix add-on

If you want manual corrections, add Human Fix for a set credit fee (flat per-job rate) and a guaranteed review turnaround — ideal for covers, internal image alignment, and edge cases.

Secure PDF delivery and re-download policy

Receive a print-ready PDF via a presigned S3 link valid 24 hours; links auto-regenerate on revisit so you can re-download without extra formatting credits.
