eBooks How to make an ePub file
I prefer Sigil for several reasons first it is free open source software and I am always up for free! Secondly, it is easy to work with and you'll have the opportunity to see the guts of what is behind an ePub file, in order to produce a perfect looking eBook.
Open your word doc file and open Sigil software. Copy and paste the word doc file into Sigil. Be sure to have the word doc file available to refer to. Insert your images; eBook images should not be wider than 450px and height should be 600px although many of my images end up being higher, it's OK.
eBooks font size is suggested for ePub files should be 11px for text in your eBook.
We will start here:
I know as an author your font allocations are important to you. They are to me too.. They're how you're representing yourself, your work to the world of readers. Now, I don't know about all the platforms for self-publishing out there on the web. I do know that most of them interrupt your fonts altering your eBooks to their own flavor of the month. That is where Book-Spot.com comes in. They are a self-publishing eBook site with a backend authors co-op store.
When you upload your ePub file to Book-Spot.com that is exactly the way it will be presented to the readers of your ebook tips and tricks.
