Hire the best typographers in the UK

If your book is graphically complex, as is the case with cookbooks, textbooks, reference books, poetry books, and graphic novels, collaborating with a professional typographer will help you ensure that your book makes use of the best possible type (also known as book font) for its aims.

Drawing from their years of experience in the publishing industry and their acute sense of graphic design, our typographers in the UK will look for or create a font that embodies your work’s sensibility, and which works with the amount of spacing designated in your layout design. Their work often goes unnoticed, but that’s the sign of a typographical success — when it flawlessly fits into place, never making the reader pay attention to the formatting of the work.

To hire a typographer in the UK or beyond, simply sign up to Reedsy’s marketplace today and browse the portfolios of our typography specialists today.
