In the light of what Steve and Darling have said above, Ma, I must add that I'd assumed (possibly wrongly) that you were referring to a 'full service' indie publisher who'd take a raw manuscript, put it through a thorough editorial process, design and produce in print as well as ebook form, earning his pay through this input and solid marketing and promotion. As our two friends point out, though, this isn't always the case where those calling themselves 'publishers' are concerned. Best. Neil
