PDF Digital Product Design — Literary Faith-Based Journal
About the product: She Witnesses is a collection of four reflective essays with accompanying journaling prompts. It is a faith-rooted, literary product — somewhere between a book, a journal and a companion. The writing is personal, honest and carefully crafted. The design needs to honour that. What's needed: A4 portrait format PDF. Approximately 80-120 pages. Interior page types needed: — Welcome letter pages — Contents page — Chapter opener pages — Essay body text pages — She Writes… prompt/journaling pages — Closing page — Back page Cover: A watercolour illustration has been generated for the cover. The full cover design — including typography, logo placement and text overlay — needs to be completed as part of this project. I will provide the illustration file, brand colours, logo files and all cover text. Brand colours: Warm cream, deep plum, soft blush, sage grey and charcoal. Exact hex codes will be provided. Font: Cormorant Garamond or similar elegant serif throughout. Clean, literary and easy to read. Style: Literary, minimal and understated. Think beautifully typeset book — not a busy digital download. White space used intentionally. Generous margins. Elegant typography. Nothing clinical, corporate or template-looking. The interior should feel like opening a quality literary publication — similar to a beautifully designed essay collection or faith-based devotional book. What I will provide: All written content in full — ready to place. Brand colour hex codes. Logo files in white and blush. Cover illustration file. Font preferences. Reference examples of the aesthetic I'm going for. Budget: £50-70 Timeline: 3-5days Important: Please share examples of previous PDF or book interior design work when applying, particularly anything literary, minimal or faith-based. I want to see that you understand this aesthetic before we begin.
Approve Logo
Gracious afternoon, I have an approved logo concept for my Christian spiritual-transformation brand, iZoevia™. I need an experienced vector illustrator and brand-identity designer to manually recreate and finalize it as production-ready vector artwork. The existing design should not be substantially redesigned. It contains a detailed six-petal ivory flower, an emerald-cut gemstone, gold ornamental details, the values “Christ-Centeredness” and “God-Confidence,” and the wordmark “iZoevia™.” I need the flower and gemstone professionally reconstructed as clean, editable vector artwork—not simply placed inside an SVG or automatically traced without refinement. The typography must be precisely typeset, and all final lettering must be converted to vector outlines. Please create a detailed primary logo and a simplified version suitable for profile icons, embroidery, merchandise, and very small reproduction. Required deliverables: AI, EPS, SVG, vector PDF, transparent PNG, and high-resolution JPG; RGB and CMYK versions; full-color, one-color, black, white, gold, and emerald variations; stacked, horizontal, emblem-only, and wordmark-only layouts; and a color and typography specification sheet. Please confirm that the final AI, EPS, SVG, and PDF files will contain actual editable vector paths and not an embedded raster image.

30s Bespoke Wedding Save-the-Date Animation (9:16)
I am looking for a motion designer/animator to create a bespoke, elegant 30-second+ "Save the Date" video for my upcoming Indian destination wedding. Crucial Note up front: I am a designer myself and have an exacting eye for detail. I am looking for luxury, fluid execution—not generic template work. Every asset must be high-resolution, fonts must be beautifully typeset and highly legible, and transitions must feel seamless and organic. Please completely avoid dated design tropes like heavy, muddy drop shadows or harsh, sudden cuts. I have generated a series of AI style frames (attached) to establish a rough creative direction and color palette. These are strictly for inspiration and style guidance—do not copy them directly. I want your professional expertise to elevate these concepts into a beautifully animated reality. Technical Specifications - Format: Vertical Video (9:16 aspect ratio / 1080x1920) optimized for mobile/WhatsApp. - Duration: 30–35 seconds (must feel paced, breathing room for text). - Assets Provided: Custom master vector wedding logo (.ai format) and AI style frames. - Audio: Strictly visual animation execution. No music tracking required. Scene 1: The Shoreline Reveal (Save the Date) Visuals: A top-down shot of a white sand beach texture. A hyper-realistic turquoise ocean wave rolls up the screen and recedes. Animation: As the water washes away, it dynamically reveals the "SAVE THE DATE" typography, subtle gold henna framing elements, and our master logo. Detail: The revealed elements must feel structurally integrated into the scene (using smart masking/blending), not just slapped on top of a static background. This is the viewer's first impression; it needs ample screen time to be read and admired. Scene 2: Tropical Paradise (The Journey) Visuals: An organic transition into a rich, vibrant tropical forest aesthetic with warm, ambient lighting. Animation: Background elements (palm fronds, hibiscus petals) should feature gentle, subtle environmental movement so the scene feels alive and kinetic, not static. Detail: The master logo should materialize elegantly, accompanied by a sophisticated, circular golden light sweep, shimmer, or ambient lens flare to highlight it without looking flashy or tacky. Scene 3: The Sacred Dates Visuals: Transition to a clean, luxury cream-colored textured background. Fine line-art Indian henna patterns should lightly fade into the background space. Animation: Two styled vector hands—one male, one female—slide smoothly up from the bottom of the frame. At the apex of their movement, traditional Indian divas (oil lamps) fade in right above them with a warm, realistic candle flicker. Detail: The hands must distinctly signify an Indian wedding (intricate bridal mehndi and bangles on the woman's wrist; a premium luxury watch on the man's). The text "Please join us on 16th & 17th February 2027" must appear beautifully after the graphics lock into place. Typography must be highly readable and pristine. Scene 4: Destination & RSVP Visuals: Transition to a deep, regal Indian maroon textured background accented with gold filigree and geometric henna elements. Animation: Our logo and final details build elegantly onto the screen. Typography: The layout must place a large, clear emphasis on "More details to follow soon," balanced beautifully with the venue text ("Shangri-La, Mactan, Cebu, Philippines") and the RSVP callout. Scene 5: Outro / The Signature The scene gently dissolves out, leaving our master wedding logo isolated on its own for a clean, premium, branded closing frame. What I Expect in Your Proposal - Please do not send generic copy-paste proposals. - A link to your portfolio showcasing luxury, fashion, or high-end event motion graphics. - Your specific technical approach to the water-wash reveal in Scene 1 (e.g., After Effects fluid simulation, track matting). - Confirming your workflow handles Adobe Illustrator vector files flawlessly.

Typesetting for small Bible
Hi, I'm not wanting to spend too much on this but if someone wants some experience this might be a good opportunity for you. I want to do the typesetting for a small A7 bible, the job will include: - a reference at the top outside corner of each page to the first verse of the left page and the last verse of the right page (If this is possible-otherwise just the book name might do) - no page numbers - possibly superscript verse numbering - ideally a nice title at the beginning of each new book - just one column - might have to adjust margins a bit to see what looks good - Provided in an A3 PDF or similar ready for printing, cutting and binding I'm not sure how much work is involved in this, I imagine with the help of AI it could be done quite quickly but we can discuss this in the pricing. I look forward to working with you. Josh

Typesetters For Academic Books

Texts range from 100 to 800 pages in A5 size, covering diverse disciplines including the social sciences, physical sciences, and medical sciences.

Experience handling both written text and incorporating visual elements is preferable. Responsibilities include reformatting documents to our standards, ensuring consistent formatting, and proofreading to eliminate errors prior to publication.

I need a book typeset from text provided from OCR
This is a book of approx. 320 pages. I have created the first 20 or so pages in Quark 2018 to provide a template for the typesetter. I will provide the Quark file, the text and, if required, a paper copy of an earlier edition of the book. This new edition is going to look like the earlier edition, but I have updated some aspects of the design and typography. There are seven sections, each section will require a change of running heads on the right hand page. So that I can later proof and add to your work the file MUST be created using Quark 2018 or compatible Quark software. You MUST have excellent English. Some titles and headers in the ocr are unreadable – but I can resolve this particular problem. Cover design is not required. I attach a sample pdf and the ocr text.
