01What I do

All or any of the tasks in between

  1. Typesetting

    I design, typeset and make up pages for books of every kind, including mathematics, the physical sciences, law and accounting.

  2. Design

    I design books and covers to suit the material and the readership: editorially relevant, readable and typographically sound.

  3. Illustration

    I draw diagrams, graphs and maps from authors’ briefs, and work closely with freelance artists, from children’s books to medical illustration.

  4. Editing

    I edit books for publication in English and in Afrikaans, from primary school to postgraduate; from literature to maths to law.

  5. Indexing

    I compile indexes that are accurate, comprehensive, logical and consistent, providing clear and easy access to the contents of a book.

  6. Translation

    I translate from Afrikaans to English, and vice versa: general as well as technical texts.

  7. Project management

    I manage the traffic between suppliers, sort out queries and report to the client every week.
