AI Business Book Figure Redesign & Formatting for Amazing Kindle Hardcover
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
Redesign 31 Figures & Deliver Print-Ready Hardcover Manuscript (Amazon KDP)
I'm publishing The Agentic Edge — a professional business book on AI and M&A for Wall Street executives — as a hardcover on Amazon KDP. The manuscript is finalized at 237 pages (6×9 inch trim) in .docx format with Garamond/Georgia typography, static table of contents, and asymmetric margins tuned for KDP rendering. The current version has passed KDP validation with zero errors.
The book contains 31 figures that need to be redesigned for hardcover print readability. The current figures were designed for screen viewing and the text is too small to read comfortably in print.
Part 1 — Redesign All 31 Figures
30 existing figures redesigned + 1 new figure created (current Fig 6.2 is a duplicate of Fig 6.1 and needs its own unique design)
All text clearly readable at 3.90" display width in a 6×9" hardcover
Preserve all original data and labels — nothing omitted
Consistent, sophisticated visual style appropriate for an executive/investor audience
Must work in both color (ebook) and grayscale (hardcover print)
Deliver editable source files (Figma/Illustrator) and a style guide documenting palette, fonts, and conventions
Part 2 — Assemble Print-Ready Manuscript
Replace all 31 images inside the existing .docx manuscript at the correct positions
Update image display dimensions to match new aspect ratios while maintaining 3.90" width
Verify and correct the Table of Contents page numbers (figure size changes will shift pagination)
Upload to KDP, generate a proof, and confirm the manuscript passes KDP validation with no errors
Deliver the final KDP-accepted .docx file ready for hardcover printing
Technical Requirements
Trim size: 6×9 inches, hardcover
Figure display width: 3.90 inches (all figures span the full text-block width)
Figure resolution: 300+ DPI (1400–1600px wide preferred), PNG format, sRGB, no transparency
Minimum text size: 8pt effective at printed display width
Manuscript format: .docx — the file has specific structural requirements for KDP (oddPage section breaks, asymmetric margins, static TOC, no VML, no field codes) that must be preserved
Platform: Amazon KDP hardcover
Figure Types Include: bar charts, area charts, scatter plots, infographic timelines, architectural diagrams, comparison tables, org charts, process flows, waterfall charts, and multi-panel frameworks.
Priority Breakdown: 8 CRITICAL (text unreadable at print size), 15 HIGH (hard to read), 4 MEDIUM, 1 LOW. A detailed spec sheet with per-figure descriptions, readability issues, and all original PNG files will be provided upon engagement.
Milestone Structure
Sample batch — 5 redesigned figures (mix of critical and high priority) for approval before proceeding
Remaining critical and high priority figures (17 figures)
Medium and low priority figures + new Fig 6.2 (9 figures)
Manuscript assembly — insert all figures, update TOC, pass KDP validation
Final delivery — editable source files, style guide, one round of revisions
Timeline: 3–4 weeks. Sample batch within 5 days.
To Apply:
Portfolio samples of infographics or book/report figure design
Experience with Amazon KDP interior formatting (hardcover preferred)
Your design tool (Figma, Illustrator, Canva Pro, etc.)
Confirm ability to deliver editable source files and a KDP-accepted .docx
Skills: Infographic Design, Data Visualization, Print Design, Book Interior Formatting, Amazon KDP, Adobe Illustrator, Figma, Microsoft Word
