ePub layout
If you want your ebook to be available on all digital platforms, it's essential that your book is formatted in epub format.
EPUB is a file designed specifically for ebooks and digital publications. Unlike PDF files, which maintain a fixed layout regardless of the reading device, the content of an EPUB can adapt and adjust dynamically to the screen size of the device it's being viewed on, whether it's a mobile phone, tablet, e-reader, or computer.
These are the most important characteristics of the epub format:
Adaptability: EPUBs adjust to the screen size and reading preferences of the user, such as text size and font style, improving accessibility and reading comfort.
Interactivity: EPUBs can include interactive elements like internal and external links, footnotes, embedded multimedia, and enhanced navigation through the content.
Lightweight: EPUB files are usually lighter than PDFs, meaning they take up less storage space and are quicker to download and open.
Open standards: Being based on open standards, EPUBs are compatible with a wide range of software and reading devices, offering a more consistent and accessible experience.
Optimization for prolonged reading: E-readers and applications designed for EPUBs often offer reading modes that reduce eye strain, such as cream-colored backgrounds and night modes.
