Author & Publisher FAQ
Yes. Our Virtual Assistants can create standard Print PDFs (with proper margins and bleeds for KDP/IngramSpark) and perfectly reflowable EPUB files for Kindle, Apple Books, and Nook from the same manuscript.
Absolutely. Sagedoer is a fully managed agency. All of our VAs operate under strict internal security protocols and Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs). Your intellectual property is never shared or outsourced externally.
Your dedicated Project Manager double-checks files before delivery, but if a platform's automated system kicks back an error, your VA will immediately adjust the trim, bleed, or margins and resupply the file so you can hit your launch deadline.
