Each book must contain a copyright page providing key information about the book. This information is already included in our templates. An example copyright page is also given on the right. If you automatically publish your book in three different formats (Paperback and Hardcover edition, eBook), at tredition, we recommend that all three related ISBNs be specified on your copyright page.
The interior may contain color pages as well. You can choose if a book is in black and white or color. The entire surface up to the trimming edge can be printed in color. Please bear in mind that color pages are more expensive to print which leads to an increase of the retail price of your book. You can check the minimum sales price of your book with our price calculator.
