OVER TO YOU If you have another great tip for ebook formatting, please feel free to share via the comments box. Ebook formatting often costs around $100, but you can get it done for $15 or so on (although it’s still worth learning Sigil for when you find those inevitable typos). I’m building my own, and it’s pretty slick so far, but not quite ready for release.īut really it’s much easier to let someone else do it. There’s also a WordPress plugin so you can just put your chapters into your WordPress blog and export them from there. They work similar to WattPad.īut some of these require monthly plans, or that you use them for distribution. Since an ebook is mostly a collection of different chapters – each set up like a webpage, there have been a bunch of new sites recently that let you add chapters in one by one, use a simple “What you see is what you get editor” and export everything directly.

InDesign will export an epub with fonts, but you’ll usually have to strip out at least the body font attributes (because you want each ebook device to be able to handle the body text, so your book doesn’t look strange or different than every other book viewed on that device).įor something with a little less of a learning curve than Sigil, you can try Jutoh – it’s a paid software but most of the options are pretty easy to find, including embedding fonts. You can also use Sigil to add fonts or images, or edit the style sheet (for example if you want the indents to be a little larger, or the subtitles to have more space below them). Sigil can be complex to learn, but if you already have an epub file and are just making fixes, it shouldn’t be overwhelming.

To make changes or fix typos you’ll need to download Sigil. If you’re using Scrivener, you’ll be able to export an epub file but won’t be able to make changes easily – you’ll have the same problem with Calibre or automatic converters. There’s an in-depth guide to this here: If you’ve done it right you can use a simple online ebook conversion tool, or upload it straight to Kindle, or run it through Calibre, and everything should look just as you set it up in Word. Set a new paragraph style for non-indents on the first chapter.
Use the “heading1” style for all chapter titles, and check that a TOC is being made automatically. The easiest way to make an ebook is to start by setting up your Word file the right way. Look at any mainstream published ebook – they rarely have special fonts or images and are super minimal. The most important thing is that the text works and is easy to read – so if you’re trying to do anything too complicated, let it go. (You should start with images that are 1440px wide and try to keep them under 127kb still.) You can insert images for breaks or decoration but keep in mind HD devices have higher resolution and will make all the images look really small. Rather than add a lot of style, you need to remove as much style as possible and make everything very simple.ĭon’t set a font for the main body text, although you can usually get away with it for chapter headings.

You can’t set up everything exactly, because readers need the ability to enlarge the text, change the font, widen the line-height plus the ebook will look different on every device and previewing tool. #1: Ebooks are supposed to be responsive and fluid. Getting in deep to really make everything look the way you want is difficult and frustrating – but you can get pretty close and save a lot of hair-pulling with these top five recommendations.
An ebook is really a collection of html files, a css “stylesheet” telling everything how it should look, other folders containing the images or fonts, and some meta-data with information about the author, publisher or title. Yet despite all of this, actually making an ebook continues to be a major hassle for most authors. It has the advantage of being speedy and responsive – you can publish immediately and make changes whenever you need to.
