I was a professional in book publishing since 2000. I'm familiar with PrePress , Print On Demand (POD) i.e. CreateSpace, IngramSpark, Lulu, Blurb also epub and amazon kindle. To make book layout quickly, consistent and easy to modify, we should create styling for paragraphs/characters, table/cells styling, and in image/object styling. Also automation for table of content, running header/footer, footnotes, cross reference, and indexing.
