Typesetting (sometimes called ‘formatting’) is the process of arranging a book’s text and other content with two main goals: to create an aesthetically pleasing and readable layout; and to produce files meeting the technical requirements of commercial printers or print-on-demand services.

Of course, books are no longer only printed on paper: more and more of us turn to ebooks for at least some of our reading, and careful ebook formatting is essential to ensure not only clean and attractive text, but also the standards compliance required to support e-reader devices of every kind.
