Page 5 - Manual ProefschriftMaken

Foreword

Dear reader,

Your public defense is coming up soon. You have years of research behind you. Now
you just need to dot your i’s and cross your t’s, and now is when you want to work with
experts who deliver a perfect dissertation! ProefschriftMaken is the ideal partner to
help you turn your dissertation into a beautiful book.

With over 1,200 productions a year, we are the market leader in the Netherlands.
We focus on dissertations only, this specialization is unique and because of that we
can focus entirely on the specific needs for PhD students.

Our team offers a tailor-made service on all disciplines. A support contact will be
assigned to you who will guide you through the full process together with several
other specialists. The printing quality of the files will be checked and we will consult
with you to ensure that all files are optimal before anything goes into production. In
addition, we have in-house designers. So if you want a unique cover or have special
requests for the interior of your book, we can arrange that.

We always print a sample book, identical to a real production copy, which allows you
to inspect a physical copy before we start the actual order. We also look at which
production method (toner or inkjet) best suits your dissertation and adapt our offer
accordingly. Working with us means you will get the best possible print quality
within your budget.

We have created this manual to provide you with useful and essential information for
the whole process. It is meant to give you an idea about all the options and how we can
help with all of them. In the final chapter we have included our design grids and the
different paper types.

My team and I are here for you, to help and guide you through everything that you
may encounter in the process of the lay-out and printing of your thesis. So feel free
to reach out if there is anything we can help you with! Enjoy reading this manual and
I look forward to meeting you in person.

Best regards,
Ben Riezouw
