I'm seeking an experienced formatter to prepare my manuscript for Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP). The document needs comprehensive formatting adjustments to meet KDP guidelines and ensure a professional appearance. The manuscript is approximately 75,000 words and includes 150 images that are already the correct pixel size for KDP.

Key Tasks:
- Create a table of contents
- Format headers and footers
- Remove page numbers
- Apply paragraph spacing for chapter headings and paragraphs
- Delete unnecessary section breaks and forced blank pages
- Use correct Kindle safe heading styles
- Ensure images are inline with text and remove any text wrapping
- Clean up paragraph formatting and ensure consistent text flow
- Replace manual TOC with auto-generated TOC
- Verify all hyperlinks are active

Ideal Skills and Experience:
- Proficiency in MS Word
- Strong understanding of KDP formatting requirements
- Attention to detail and ability to follow specific formatting instructions
- Previous experience formatting manuscripts for publishing

Please share relevant experience and approach to ensure a smooth, KDP-compliant document. I can provide a more detailed list of the work that needs to be done to complete KDP requirements once we communicate.
