Yes, I don't have the pricing nailed down, so I thought I'd start with 9%. How it works is you set a price for your digital book, and when a printable version is ordered we add the cost of printing and shipping on top of the cost of the digital book. We take 9% of the price of the digital book, so your profit remains the same.

Generating Ebooks (PDF, EPUB, MOBI and Online Versions) is the main core of the product, we would generate beautiful typeset ebooks from your draft text.

Although now the only import option is copy and paste, we are working on rebuilding the editor and once that is finished we would have import from word document, since that is the most common formats among authors.

In publishing context, typeset usually implies / means printing physical copy, I think you mean "beautifully formatted ebooks"?

Yes, I meant beautifully formatted e-books and printed books.
