The design fee included the cover design, content, and layout. The total cost ranged from a few hundred to a few thousand depending on the manuscript and the design difficulty. The publishing house had to pay an editing fee when reviewing the manuscript, which was usually calculated by 1000 words. The editing fee was generally between 10 to 20 yuan per 1000 words. For example, the editing fee for a 100,000-word manuscript was between 1000 to 2000 yuan. 3. ** Book publishing and printing costs **: This is related to the number of prints, the way of binding, and the quality. The cost of an ordinary printed copy was about 8 - 20 yuan, and the cost of hardcover was even higher. The higher the number of prints, the cheaper the unit price. However, depending on the quality of the paper and the printing method, the cost would be in the thousands or even tens of thousands. 4. ** Other fees **: Including copyright fees (5% - 15% of the book's price), taxes, marketing fees, etc. If there is a need for book distribution, if you find an additional distribution company, the fees will range from thousands to tens of thousands depending on the distribution channels and resources.

The publishing house was not willing to bear the cost and risk of publishing the book alone. They would communicate with the author to share the cost. The proportion of both parties would be decided by both parties. 3. ** Self-funded publishing **: The costs of the book number, editing, publishing, printing, distribution, and a series of publishing links are all funded by the author or investor (unit). The sales task is also resolved by the author himself. For example, works that had reached the publishing level and had publishing value but were unwilling to be published by the publishing party, but the author requested to publish them; works of good quality and expected good distribution market, but the author or cultural company thought that self-funded publishing was cost-effective and could be published by themselves; there were also cases where it was for the evaluation of professional titles or the publication of personal memorial anthology with a small print run. The basic process of publishing was as follows: 1. ** Selection of topics **: Whether it's a good draft or a good topic, you must first make a topic selection form, which includes the author's introduction, content introduction, word count, picture count, genre, selling point extraction, reader confirmation, market analysis, comparison of similar books, and other basic information. 2. ** Sign a contract **: After the topic is selected, the editor and author will sign a contract according to the agreement. 3. ** Proofreading work **: After the editor reads the manuscript, he will find the market selling point according to the content judgment, and let the author make adjustments to the text, such as deleting the content, adjusting the text direction, adjusting the table of contents, and so on. 4. ** Typography **: The editor will send the document to the typographer to negotiate the layout, font size, character spacing, page, and book eyebrows. The content must be smooth, the accuracy of the punctuations, the style design, the layout, the content logic, and other aspects of the quality. The error rate must be controlled below 0.001%. 5. ** Submit by the publishing house **: During the project establishment period, the application form submitted by the editor to the publishing house is different from the planning topic selection form. After determining which publishing house to cooperate with, it needs to be filled in according to the format of the publishing house's topic selection, and then the publishing house will review whether it is suitable for publication. 6. ** Cover Creation **: During the review and application period of the publishing house, the editor has to make the cover copy, including the main title, sub-title, cover slogan, back cover copy, front and back cover copy, etc., and communicate the design style with the designer, provide reference books, etc. 7. ** Obtain book number, etc. **: Obtain the wholesale book number and VIP data of the publishing house. This is equivalent to the book's "ID card" and is an important indicator of the book's compliance. 8. ** Text Release **: The editor will check the printed pages of the manuscript, check the table of contents, page number, book head, page format, etc. After confirming that there is no error, he will make a film file and send it to the film company. The film company will send the film to the editor. The editor will check the paper page by page to ensure that there is no error. 9. ** Print Work **: fill in the pre-press handover form, determine the printed sheet, print count, waist seal, color type, process, paper, etc. These factors determine the size, size, thickness, and cost of the book. After signing by all parties, the sample was sent to the printing house to start printing. The cover and the film were usually printed by different printing houses. 10. ** Post-marketing **: After the original website and media marketing ends, if the situation permits, follow-up marketing will be carried out. The entire publishing process usually took three to six months. If there were problems or delays in the middle, the cycle would be extended. In the entire publishing process, agency publishing was the main form of academic publication. The author would hand over the work to the agency publishing company, and the agent would apply for the book number from the publishing house, and carry out editing, proofreading, layout design, film release, printing, binding, and other work. After the book was published, it would be arranged for distribution or directly handed over to the author. For self-funded publishing, the review fee, book number fee, layout design fee, and printing fee had to be borne by the author. The book number fee was relatively high. For example, when the print volume was not long, the overall cost would also change with the market.
