The publisher will receive a clean, validated ePub file. - Fabe
That works out to only $40 per ebook, plus extras. This would imply that you could complete the contract in a more timely manner than the contract specified and would give you an advantage if this contract was put to bid.

This brings up another question. Are contract eBook formatters doing this as a full-time job or are they supplementing their regular income, say as a web designer or some other job?
