印制部分需要英方自己与印厂下单，荣信不参与：此价格为协助预估的参考价格。
The printing part needs to be ordered by the British side and the printing factory, and Rongxin does not participate: this price is a reference price to assist in estimation.
2. 图书的预付版税及图档费：
2. Prepaid royalties and image fees for books:
一般情况下：图档费为 500 美元，作为优惠：荣信收取 100 美元；
In general, the image fee is $500, as a discount: Rongxin charges $100;
预付版税：一般情况下：买方按照首印量提报价格：如果按照 7% 的版税率：1000 册印量，8.99 英镑 / 本售价（根据英国实际情况调整）。
Royalty prepaid: Generally: Buyer quotes price based on first printing: If at 7% royalty rate: 1000 copies printed, £8.99 / copy price (adjusted for United Kingdom).
1000×7%×8.99=629.3 英镑：根据合同约定：作者获得 90% 收益，即 566.37 英镑，荣信 10% 收益，即 62.9 英镑。作为优惠：若作者方只要 10% 的收益：即 62.9 英镑，那么为方便合同流程（因为合同已经约定作者收益为 90%，若改成 10% 则需要重签补充协议等：较为麻烦）：建议英方按照 100 册预付提报。即 100×7%×8.99=62.9 英镑，作者 90% 即 56.61 英镑，荣信 6.29 英镑。
1000×7%×8.99=£629.3: According to the contract: the author receives 90% of the income, i.e. £566.37, and Rongxin receives 10% of the income, i.e. £62.9. As a prefer: if the author only needs 10% of the income: that is, 62.9 pounds, then in order to facilitate the contract process (because the contract already stipulates that the author's income is 90%, if it is changed to 10%, you need to re-sign the supplementary agreement, etc.: it is more troublesome): it is recommended that the British side prepay according to 100 copies. i.e. 100×7%×8.99=£62.9, author's 90% £56.61, and Rongxin £6.29.
还有一种更省成本的 —— 即作者方直接授权英方无需通过荣信。根据合同约定，荣信为作者的版权代理方：但非独家：作者也可以直接授权英方出版。作者可以直接与英方洽谈预付版税（更少）和图档费（甚至可以没有）。
There is also a more cost-effective - that is, the author directly authorizes the British side without going through Rongxin. According to the contract, Rongxin is the author's copyright agent: but not exclusively: the author can also directly authorize the British side to publish. Authors can negotiate directly with the UK for prepaid royalties (less) and image fees (or even without).
