LIKE ALL REPUTABLE PUBLISHERS, you are creative and concerned with quality. You pay a great deal of attention to the look, feel, and usability of your books. After all, that's what your brand and reputation hinges on. Even more importantly, quality is the ingredient that brings readers back for more. It prompts them to visit their local bookstore or book e-tailer to check out other titles from your list.

So when you move into the electronic world, you need to be certain that your digital product will match your printed product. It is imperative that the quality doesn't suffer.

This means choosing the right conversion house to turn you Quark, paper, MS Word, or other files, into OEB format.

Why choose Data Conversion Laboratory?

Not only can we manage very large volumes quickly and efficiently, but our conversion process is highly automated. This means that:

Prices are highly competitive (because less labor is involved)
Quality is top notch (using software for the mark-up process means the end result is far more precise and consistent)

Plus, if you've got a hundred titles to convert and all of them have varied subject matter and themes, that's no problem. We find the common threads between them, enabling us to build a tight and efficient conversion process. This not only saves you money, but means the output books will have a unified look and will be a clearly recognizable e-book brand.

Another one of our strengths is project management. We're a long-established industry leader in the implementation of large scale data conversions and have built up a highly experienced technical team that can cover every eventuality in a timely and efficient manner - while keeping you informed and up to pace at all times.
