The cost of book printing is one of the most important variables that will ultimately determine a self publishing author’s profit per sale. Whether you’re purchasing books for yourself to giveaway or resell, or you want to know how much you will be paid when your book is sold through our distribution channels, this is the page that explains what ultimately defines the Author Price per book. The total cost per book is calculated by multiplying the number of pages by the Per Page price and then adding that amount to the Per Unit amount.
