Content services & publishing technology
Scholarly content, engineered end to end.
Who we are
A publishing partner built for the next decade.
Aphelion is named for the furthest point in an orbit — the moment that demands the most precision. It is where we like to work: on the complex, high-stakes end of scholarly and enterprise publishing, where accuracy and speed are usually treated as a trade-off.
We are a growing publishing services company specialising in high-quality typesetting for scholarly, academic, and professional publications. Our team brings hands-on experience in publishing production, combining technical expertise with meticulous attention to detail to deliver accurate, publication-ready content.
We work closely with commercial publishers, learned societies, university presses, and enterprise content teams, adapting our workflows to their house styles, production standards, schedules, and metadata requirements to ensure consistent, reliable results.
-
01
Respect for the record
Scholarly content outlives the platforms it is published on. Every decision we make defends the integrity of what the author wrote.
-
02
Technology as leverage, not replacement
Automation handles the mechanical passes so that human judgement is spent where it actually changes the outcome.
-
03
Transparent partnership
Clear scopes, visible schedules and honest escalation. You should never have to ask where a title stands.
-
04
Craft, at volume
Consistency across thousands of pages is a discipline. We build the rule engines, checklists and reviews that make it repeatable.

Copy editing
Language, consistency and style applied with a documented rule set behind every change. Light-touch through to substantive, with author queries written to be answered in one pass.

Redrawing, relabelling and recolouring figures to a consistent house standard, plus original illustration, graphical abstracts and cover artwork.

Typesetting & pagination
Finely composed pages for print and screen, produced in LaTeX, InDesign or our own pagination engine — uniform, readable and accessible by construction.
-
05
Accessibility
Tagged PDF, alt text, reading order and MathML remediation, benchmarked against WCAG 2.2 AA and the European Accessibility Act — built into production, not bolted on.

Quality checks
Thorough quality checks for page layout, typography, formatting, references, tables, figures and overall consistency to ensure accurate, publication-ready content.

Collation of author corrections, copyedited manuscripts, figures and supplementary files to ensure every revision is accurately incorporated before final production.
