eBook Mania -- Training > How To Create eBooks using Adobe InDesign

The future of digital publishing has changed forever in the last two months -- with the announcement of Apple iPad sales in Wal-Mart, Target, AT&T and Version stores nationwide. We are witnessing a historical paradigm shift in the way we read and interact with books which include text, web links, images, artwork, interactivity, audio, video. This advent will yield new production revenue streams using Adobe InDesign.

Training Workshops using InDesign CS5, CS4, CS3 to Create eBooks (.ePub)

Standard formats for page parameters, page structure, master page text frames, interactivity, exporting to (.ePub) options and planning for (.pdf) files for reading from eBooks on multiple devices such as: Apple iPad, , Sony PRS, Barnes & Noble Nook, BeBook Neo, Kobo, Cool-er, Alex, Pandigital Novel and others. The exception at this time is Amazon Kindle - it does NOT support .ePub file format at this time.

ePub, eBook White Papers, Sample Files, Links Below

Below are files and links to help you create eBooks (.ePub file format). Create eBooks using Adobe InDesign that can be exported as .ePub and PDF. iBook App or iPhone and iPad support both formats in the App Library.

eBook Page Screen Capture for Master Page Template

Be sure to use download eBook page screen capture. Place on Master Pages A and B. This allows you to observe a close relationship between the InDesign page and the eBook page as you produce chapter titles, body, bullets, bolding, etc. Use a paragraph style bold to start sub-chapter headings.

Picking Fonts, Sizes to Build eBook

Based on trail and error, at this point use these options to create eBook: Font: Verdana, chapter titles 14pts, body copy 12 points, auto leading. eBook supports only a few fonts internally. Verdana seems to give best representation of layout when building InDesign pages. The reader chooses the font. I find this one easiest to read as well.
