eBooks How to create an ePub file
I, personally, prefer Sigil for several reasons first it is free and I am always up for that! Secondly, it's easy to work with. You'll have the ability to see the guts of what makes an ePub file, in order to make a good 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 open again. Insert your images; eBook images should not be wider than 450px and height should be 600px many of my images still 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. I am an author too and now the importance of having my own font.. They are how you're representing yourself, your work to the readers of your eBooks. Now, I don't know about all of the platforms for self-publishing out there on the web. I do know that most of them re-interrupt your work altering your eBooks to their own flavor of the month. That is where Book-Spot.com comes to the rescue. They are a free self-publishing site with a backend authors co-op store.
When you upload your ePub file to Book-Spot.com that is the way it will be presented to the buyers of your ebook money.
