BEFORE CHECKOUT: You can make unlimited changes prior to checkout and payment. You can edit anything contained in the eBook Information list on the eBook Details page. You can also re-upload eBook content files and we will use the latest upload as your final file.
AFTER receiving a proof, eBook content changes: You can still make spelling or minor punctuation changes but you will incur correction fees. (The fee is a $50 flat fee, plus $2 per edit.) If you have more than 25 minor edits, or you have significant changes, you can supply a new file for reconversion. The reconversion fee is $100.
To request spelling or minor punctuation changes, please email the list of corrections to support@bookbaby.com and we will provide you with a quote.
Why do we charge for changes after checkout? What might seem like a minor change actually requires more time and effort than you might think. Our technicians make the manual changes to your eBook. Then the updated file must be reconverted to ePub. And finally we must redeliver to every retail store in the BookBaby network. That’s a lot of work for a few missed commas, so please spend the time and effort to proofread!
AFTER proof approval, eBook metadata (pricing, description) changes: You can make changes to all the non-content areas of your eBook after checkout. This includes long and short descriptions, genre, author bio, keywords and pricing.
You can edit/update your title metadata by following these steps:
1. Log into your account.
2. Select Manage my Books."
3. Select "View/Update Metadata."
4. Select "Edit" for the section that you would like to update.
5. Proceed through the prompts.
