Product Description
***This is an older edition of this guide. There is a 2012 edition available. I'd suggest you go get the newer 2012 edition.***br /br /This book provides basic step-by-step instructions on how to format your ebook for Kindle so that you can publish it on Amazon and make it available for sale to the public. This book gives you the necessary steps to format your book as quickly as possible without using Amazon’s conversion tools. This book is not a reference guide that tells you every minute detail about formatting books for Kindle. Please see the notes below to see some important details about the contents of this book.br /br /If you don’t want to pay to have some service convert a manuscript into the Kindle format, but you also don’t want to spend a lot of time on it yourself, then this book is for you. This is also for you if you don’t like the automatic conversion results that the Kindle tools provide. With this guide YOU determine where the page breaks are, how many line breaks between your chapter title and the start of the page, and so on.br /br /The goal of this guide is to enable you to (relatively) quickly format your basic ebook in a simple fashion with cover art, copyright page, clickable table of contents, and chapter titles. So you aren’t overwhelmed, these instructions tell you how to format your ebook in one way, with minimal options. After you learn the instructions in this book, you should be able format your novel in about an hour, unless it’s very long.br /br /This book includes a link to an HTML template that you can use for any Kindle ebook. You do NOT need to know HTML. You just need to replace some placeholder text to specify your book information in a text editor such as Notepad or Microsoft Expression.br /br /You’ll also need to do some Find Replace on your book in Word, plus some Copy Paste.br /br /These instructions tell you how to include the following in your ebook:br /br /Line breaksbr /Page breaksbr /Links from one part of your book to another part of your bookbr /Cover artbr /Copyright pagebr /Links to any website (for web-capable devices)br /Clickable table of contentsbr /Chapter titlesbr /br /br /Also included are instructions on how to zip your files for submission to Amazon DTP.br /br /This eBook is published DRM-free.br /br /br /NOTE 1: Do not buy this book unless you want to publish your book to Amazon and make it available for the public to buy. If you just want to send your personal books or documents to your own Kindle, please follow the instructions in the Kindle User Guide. br /br /Also, do not buy this book if you are content with the automated conversion tools that Amazon provides to authors and publishers. If you like the results you get from the conversion tools, you don’t need this book. I found that the conversion tools resulted in some strange formatting behavior with page breaks and line breaks, among other things, which is why I prefer to use this method.br /br /NOTE 2: I wrote these instructions on a Windows PC system. These instructions have not been tested on a Mac system, although you should be able to modify them to work.br /br /NOTE 3: Italics, bold, numbered and bulleted lists. This book does include instructions on how to format numbered and bulleted lists, italics, and bold text. However, it is a manual process to do this. If you have a lot of italics, bold, or lists in your book, it will probably take you a long time to format using this book. If you do have a lot of non-basic text in your book, you should probably use the automated conversion tool or pay a professional formatter instead of buying this book.br /br /NOTE 4: This guide does not provide instructions on including images in your novel other than the cover. Check out the 2012 edition of this guide for image support.br /
