Welcome to http://www.CreateEbooksEZBlog.com
This Blog originated for the reason that many readers of my training tutorial videos and ebooks, including articles and other blogs have requested I provide additional information on how they can also create and publish their own ebooks.
It seems as though many of you have purchased a few different type HTML ebook compilers and you are not obtaining the results you would like to.
Among the comments there are many who reference images and page formats included in the HTML executable style ebook.
Interestingly, there are more than a few of you that start off with a pre-written manuscript of, say, 250 pages plus. A number of you immediately follow the instructions to compile your Microsoft Word or Word Perfect document only to find that you cannot move forward or proceed to pages 2, 3 and more.
The reason for this is HTML format recognizes a whole document all as one individual page. More than likely if you scroll downward, you would then see your remaining content.
In comparison to PDF format, the entire document is recognized the same as you wrote it in page layout.
This, with greater frequency, is the more common reason you are not able to use the forward, backward, next and previous buttons to access consecutive or numbered pages.
There are a different ways in which to incorporate numbered pages when creating HTML format ebooks.
- 1. Prepare your pages with Hypertext Links and or Bookmarks access.
- 2. Set up your pages with a 6” x 9” layout allowing top and bottom margins for page numbered linking.
- 3. Set up your footer with a Next and Previous Button
- 4. Set up your footer to also include your Table of Contents.
Generally, if you have a pre-written page numbering manuscript, I recommend your eBook document is converted into a PDF format.
The reason for this is 99.9 percent of the layout and style will be retained. Therefore, you do not have to re-create your material.
There are many ways to include images and smarten up your PDF ebook to improve your overall presentation and conversion.
If you are writing and publishing an eBook from a pre-written 200+ page manuscript document, then you should seriously consider producing your product using the PDF format.
You can creatively insert images, tables and style sheet options to liven up your presentation.
