Fixed Layout Ebook - Yes Or No?
No Affiliate Links. No Courses. Just my honest opinion on all things self-publishing 🤙

Video Information
Fixed Layout:
A fixed layout eBook is a digital publication format wherein the content, including text, images, and design elements, is precisely positioned on each page, mimicking the appearance of a printed book. This format is particularly suitable for children's books, graphic novels, cookbooks, and other visually-rich publications, where maintaining the original design and layout is crucial. However, fixed-layout eBooks may sacrifice accessibility and customisation options for readers.
Reflowable:
A reflowable eBook is a digital publication format that adapts its content and layout to fit various devices' screen size and orientations, providing an optimal reading experience. Unlike fixed layout eBooks, reflowable eBooks allow for customisation of text size, font, and spacing, enhancing accessibility and comfort for the reader. This format is well-suited for text-heavy publications like novels, essays, and reports, where visual consistency is less crucial. The flexibility of reflowable eBooks ensures readability across a wide range of devices, making them a popular choice for most digital publishing scenarios.

Thank you. You help us a lot. Greetings to you from Algeria 🇩🇿
Steve, you've created the most thoughtful detailed videos for self-publishing I have ever seen. They are superb! Keep on presenting how to use Canva, and would love to see more on creating reflowable books that have images. How they look, what to watch for, e.g. double column fixed layout book type do not adapt well to reflowable or do they.
I have an 8.5 x 11 picture book with 26 pt. font. I made an epub by first making a .docx file with page breaks and converting. Please note that there is only a single picture per page. The epub is reflowable. Do I need to make it fixed, and if so is there any easier way than figuring out how to use indesign?
Sir listen please, i have problem in uploading e book they show an eror and still on uploading it says "Manuscript contains only images and is in a reflowable format, which is intended for text-heavy content. We recommend uploading image-only books in fixed layout. Learn more " what can i do gor it sir , do i have to change my format for that ?
