Typesetter (On-call)

Description For more than 60 years, Tyndale has helped readers discover the life-giving truths of God’s Word. Today we’re one of the largest independently owned Christian publishers in the world. Though our business has grown, our mission remains the same: to open God’s Word to as many as possible in language they can relate to and understand.

Are you passionate about making books and Bibles beautiful and accessible to everyone? Tyndale's composition team turns manuscripts into finished pages — fiction, nonfiction, children's books, and Bibles — working closely with editorial and design colleagues who care as much about craft as you do. We're looking for skilled typesetters to join us on an on-call basis and bring that same care to every project.

As an on-call Typesetter, you'll create the reading experience our customers actually hold in their hands. Working in In. Design, you'll implement interior layouts to editorial and design specifications, then carry those files through proofing and corrections to a clean, print-ready PDF — the last set of eyes before a book or Bible goes to press.

It's detail-driven work with a visible result: every layout you build helps make God's Word and Christ-centered content clear, readable, and inviting.

What You'll Do

Implement page layouts for books and Bibles in In. Design according to editorial and design specifications. Output page proofs and In. Copy files per editorial proofreading requirements. Apply text corrections and design updates to page proofs as needed. Prepare, preflight, and check final print-ready PDF files. Skills and Qualifications Needed Proficiency with In.

Design and Acrobat needed. Experience in book/Bible typesetting strongly preferred. Clear communication skills and the ability to collaborate with highly skilled members of other teams are essential. Work hours will be based on availability and need, but we envision there being 15-29 hours of work per week. We want to hear more about you and why you are interested in Tyndale and this role, so we highly recommend including a cover letter.
