No re-import, no templates
A Reedsy alternative for Word manuscripts
Reedsy Studio formats books for free — inside its own editor, from its own templates. doc2epub bets your manuscript is already where you want it: in your Word file.

The honest comparison
Reedsy Studio (the tool formerly called the Reedsy Book Editor) is genuinely free, browser-based, and a reasonable choice if you're happy writing inside it and one of its templates fits your book. It's the front door to Reedsy's marketplace of freelance editors and designers, which is the business behind the free tool.
doc2epub takes the other path: no editor to import your book into, no template gallery to fit yourself to. It reads the Word manuscript you already have, detects the chapters and front matter, and typesets to your choices — trim size, typeface, chapter ornaments, drop caps, scene breaks, running heads — with mirrored margins and KDP's gutter math on the print side, and epubcheck validation on the EPUB. When the next revision is done in Word, upload the new file and rebuild; your book never has to live in a second app.
Preview everything before paying
Both formats are built and previewable — every page — before any payment. If the typeset book isn't what you pictured, you've spent nothing.
