There's no additional charge on re-orders, if you use the same cover design.For cover samples, and more info

ISBN and barcode assistance (no charge):
Your book doesn’t have to have an ISBN, but if you’re planning on selling it through major bookstores or online bookstores, you’ll need one. We recommend getting your own block of ISBN numbers, through ISBN.org.
We can help you get your own ISBN and barcode and YOU will be the publisher! If you only need one (1) ISBN, simply download the single ISBN application form here, either as a WORD DOC or as a PDF FILE. For multiple ISBNs, you'll need to go to their website, ISBN.org. They have a simple online order form, and a block of 10 ISBNs is $275, or a block of 100 is $995. Why get your own? Because you will be your own publisher. You’ll retain all rights to your book. Of course, we still want to print your books, but you’ll have total control.
The process takes about a week, though, so you'll need to figure that into your deadline. If you’re in a hurry, have us print the first set of books without an ISBN. We can always print stickers that you can put on the books after you get your ISBN.
But if you can't figure it out, call us for help, or just send us your Word files and we'll convert them for you (for $50).
These are PERFECT BOUND BOOKS (paperback books), with inside pages printed in black ink on 60# bright white offset, full-color covers printed on a heavy 10 pt. C1S, then UV Coated with a high-gloss protective coating. They look incredible! If your book has full-color inside pages, include that in the calculator below. If your book is an odd size, choose the next larger size, and indicate the actual finished size under "Comments" when you order. We offer three pricing levels: Standard ships in 2 business days, Rush ships in 1 business day, and Super Rush ships same day. (Note: Rush and Super Rush are available on a limited basis. Please call to confirm availability.)

Printed Proof ($40):
We send a PDF proof for you to look at for FREE, but if you also want a PRINTED PROOF sent to you via UPS Next Day Air, say 'Yes" to Printed Proof. You'll still get the PDF proof, but after you OK that, we'll print, bind and ship a printed proof to you.Re-formatting your files ($75 minimum):
If your files are set up for 8.5 x 11, but you want your book to be a different size and have no idea how to re-format it, we can re-format your files for you. Of course, you could call or email us and we can send you simple instructions for re-formatting, and you could do it yourself for free.Converting files to PDF ($50):
You can convert your files to PDF for FREE by clicking here for instant download and select "RUN". (If you've got a Mac, PDF conversion is built right into your system.)But if you can't figure it out, call us for help, or just send us your Word files and we'll convert them for you (for $50).
Sending us revised files ($50):
Please proofread your files carefully before submitting them. We do a lot of work on your files before sending you the PDF proof or the printed proof. If you need to submit new files, there is a $50 charge to cover the work we've already done on your original files.Cancelled orders ($100 + any other options chosen):
As soon as you place your order, it's put into our production schedule. We put a lot of work into your files and reserve press time for printing your book. If you cancel your order, we'll be happy to return any deposits or credit card authorizations, minus $100 and any other options chosen that we have performed.These are PERFECT BOUND BOOKS (paperback books), with inside pages printed in black ink on 60# bright white offset, full-color covers printed on a heavy 10 pt.
