Aventine Press is a relatively small publishing house but because we partner with LightningSource Inc., a subsidiary of Ingram Industries Inc., we can offer our authors delivery channels to more than 90% of all retail bookstore outlets in the USA. Our print on demand titles are listed on Ingram databases and are ordered by booksellers through the same methods they usually use – electronic ordering, telephone, fax, and mail.

Flexibility & quality

Our standard paperback trim size is 5.5"x 8.5" but we can produce trade paperbacks with 4-color covers in seven trim sizes, 5"x8", 5.5"x8.5", 6"x9", 6.14x9.21, 7.44x9.69, 7.5"x9.25", and 8.25"x11" plus 5.5"x8.5", 6"x9", 7"x10" softback and 6.14"x9.21" hardcovers, and 4-color jacketed hardcovers. Books that are virtually identical to offset-printed originals. In fact, you would be hard-pressed to tell the difference. We produce clean graphics, vibrant 4-color covers, and easy-to-read text.

Quiet professionalism

Most of our clientele come to us as referals from authors we have worked for in the past. Our reputation for excellence in customer service, book cover designs, interior layout and author web page design is second to none in the industry.

People make the difference

Many self publishing companies today use automated processes for page layout and even copyediting which can lead to undesired results. At Aventine Press, we employ talented people to perform these tasks, not machines.
