Option Details:  

Do you want to publish a beautiful, high-quality, professionally-formatted cookbook, with a custom-designed layout but without the custom-designed price? 

The exclusive Cookbook Formatting Kit from Outskirts Press is the fastest, easiest way to literally "cut'n'paste" your recipes into a pre-formatted document for a final manuscript that you can then publish with ease! Scroll down to Product Details for more information

 

Product details...

Imagine creating a fully-formatted, professionally-designed cookbook with the push of a few buttons. Imagine simply "cutting'n'pasting" your recipes into designated areas of an already-formatted document. Fast. Easy.

Imagine already having general, full-color photos available to "spruce" up your recipes (or having the flexibility to replace them with your own photographs). It's up to you!

Imagine, still, that elements like justification, centering, page spreads, margins, page numbering, graphical elements, and title drops were already taken care of!

That's how easy it is to format your professional cookbook with our exclusive Cookbook Formatting Kit. Each kit comes with two files:

Use the "Easy" file...

  • as building blocks to add more pages
  • to move recipes around
  • to add or replace included graphical elements, ingredient lists, and more 
  • to further customize your cookbook however you want

 

Or use the "Easier" file...

  • to simply cut'n'paste 40 recipes directly into the file
  • to add ingredient lists with ease
  • to accommodate a wide variety of recipe lengths

 

Both files are included in the Kit. Start with the "Easier" way and then as you become comfortable, move to the "Easy" file to add more recipes and insert your own images for a second volume.

Then when you're ready to publish your cookbook, you will have a beautiful, professionally-formatted, and print-ready manuscript (in 8.5x8.5 trim) to submit as-is for high-quality full-color publishing.

Both files are Microsoft Word 2003 files, so be sure that is a compatible format for your computer before purchasing the Formatting Kit.

Important Delivery Details: Once you click the Add to Cart button and complete your purchase, your Cookbook Formatting Kit will be available for instant download within the "My Toolkit" area of your Publishing Account. Each file is approximately 21 MB. This is almost 50 MB of instant publishing support!

Still not sure? Flip through the Formatting Kit below to see if it will work for your recipes.  Remember, the "Easiest" file will look exactly like what you see below (of course, with the flexibility of replacing the placeholders with your recipes, ingredient lists, and directions), but the "Easy" file is completely unlocked for you to modify and add to as you see fit.
