The Build

The work has an output

What you work towards.

• A workflow for a print interior and an e-book from one manuscript.
• The complete build pack, delivered with this part.
• Production checks, a build report and a record of completed checks. These do not replace your final e-book and print-proof review.
• A specification you can use if a supplier builds the files for you.
• Build pack v2.3 checks page references, list and table structure, and unfinished placeholders.

You choose the direction and approve the work. Keep the guide for future books, with a separate folder for each project.

SAMPLE · PART 5

A useful starting point

Before you begin.

Your approved edited master and Part 4 handover ZIP. The standard route builds in Claude Cowork after a workspace self-test; no local installation is the starting requirement. If that workspace cannot run the tools, the guide explains manual and supplier alternatives.

Use the PDF in Claude Cowork on your desktop, with a connected browser (Claude in Chrome or the app’s browser). Attach the previous handover ZIP and paste its start prompt, or type go. External subscriptions are separate. A standalone purchase needs equivalent input files; the guide checks what is missing. If you are unsure whether your files are sufficient, email the team before buying.

Ask the team about your starting point. See the book our complete workflow produced, from research to published paperback and Kindle edition. See the real book and process.
