Build your Bible

A few choices, then a free preview. Nothing is charged until you build.

What you'll get: one build makes up to four files — a print-ready PDF, light and dark screen-reading PDFs, and an EPUB3, yours to keep and read anywhere. You pick the files in step 3, and only the steps that shape them follow.

1Translation

Public-domain and licensed translations only. Text is composed from the Darash corpus.

Add a second (and optional third) translation to build a parallel edition — every verse stacked line by line, translation by translation, the way the original engine did it. Up to three, on any trim. You can even pair Hebrew with a Latin translation (e.g. Norwegian or English alongside the Leningrad Codex): the Hebrew line reads right-to-left in a proper Hebrew font, the Latin lines left-to-right.

3Which files?

The files never change the price — every file you tick is made for the same credits. Taking fewer does not cost less; taking all four does not cost more. Keep at least one. What you tick here decides which steps follow.

Reading PDFs and EPUB

Colours the contents page, chapter headings and verse numerals. The print PDF stays black and white unless you ask for colour in it.

Off by default: verses run together as flowing paragraphs, the way a printed Bible reads. On, each verse begins a new line — easier to follow when studying.

5Print PDF

page & type for the printed book

Three standard sizes any print shop takes. 7×10 pairs well with a larger type size. The reading PDFs get their own screen page, and the EPUB reflows to any device.

7–14 pt — larger is easier to read, smaller fits more per page. The reading PDFs match this unless you give them their own size.

Your print PDF is black and white by default — print shops bill a colour interior at several times the mono rate, so this stays off unless you ask for it.

Advanced print options Bible compact · Normal

Page numbers are on by default, and that is what we recommend — a Bible you cannot cite a page in is hard to use, and the contents needs somewhere to point. Turn them off only for an unbroken reading page: the folio then goes from every page, the running book name moves to the centre, and the contents lists the books without page numbers or leaders.

Tighter margins and tighter spacing mean fewer pages, which matters for a whole Bible: print-on-demand paper is thicker than real Bible paper and most binding tops out around 800 pages, so Ultra compact and tight pack a whole Bible into the fewest pages.

6Reading PDFs

light & dark screen editions

Pocket → 5×8. Phone → A5. Tablet or e-reader → Screen. Computer or printing at home → A4 (or US Letter in the US). Applies to both reading PDFs.

Set the reading PDFs’ type on its own, or leave it to follow the print type size.

Advanced reading options Standard · Normal

Standard is tuned for comfortable screen reading — change it only if you want a denser or airier page.

7Custom cover

optional

Upload your own cover art and it becomes the front of your EPUB and the full-bleed first page of every PDF — the perfect way to gift a Bible to someone you love.

PNG or JPEG, at least 1800×2700 px for the 6x9 trim (300 dpi, print quality), up to 10 MB. Any shape works — an off-aspect image is centred and cropped to fill the page edge to edge.

8Preview or build

Preview is a free sample of up to three books — always the full set, so you can judge every file. Building spends one credit and produces the files you chose in step 3 — a New Testament costs one credit, the Old Testament or the whole Bible two, whichever files you take.

Building requires an account — you’ll be asked to sign in or register.
