Hire the best typographers in Cambridge

Font, as it turns out, is everything in a book. On the cover, it’s a reader’s first impression, so the font you use on a book cover should reflect the genre you write in. Experienced book typographers for hire in Cambridge know the contemporary designs in vogue for each and every literary niche.

But it goes beyond front of a cover, of course. Typographers can help with the inside of a manuscript. The choice of font, line spacing, margins, as well as photography and illustration placement affects the reader experience. Some say that the best typographers to hire are those who aren’t too flashy — their talent is supporting the work of the author’s sentences, instead of showing off fancy design skills. The beautiful interior design of a book is almost a subliminal message: it’s so lovely that we can easily get lost inside it.

Book typographers for hire in Cambridge know how to get your book picture-perfect. To find your typographer match, you don’t need to look any further than Reedsy. We have the top book typographers in the business on our marketplace, including former Big 5 designers who have worked on countless bestselling books. Simply sign up for a free Reedsy account today to meet them and start the conversation.
