Convert 200 pages multilingual book from MS Word-to-InDesign - two sizes
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I have a 205-page, English–Arabic manuscript in Microsoft Word that now needs to live in Adobe InDesign as two separate, press-ready files: one sized 8 × 11.5 in and another at 6 × 9 in. The document contains dozens of bilingual tables and a fair number of embedded images.
Here is what I need done:
• Re-create every page in InDesign, maintaining the English-right/Arabic-left flow exactly as it reads now.
• Simplify the existing table designs so they remain clear and consistent across both trim sizes while still supporting the two-direction text.
• Place all images, resizing them where necessary so they sit comfortably within each layout without distortion or loss of resolution.
• Replace the current Word fonts with clean, print-friendly typefaces that support full Latin and Arabic glyph sets.
• Supply two packaged InDesign projects (INDD, IDML, links, fonts) plus press-ready PDFs for each size.
I will provide the original Word file and all linked artwork the moment we start. Please let me know your expected turnaround and any questions about bilingual typesetting or table handling.
