I used Atticus to format my ebook and print book. I loved the way everything turned out. Atticus has a great number of fonts and they recently added more fonts which is super cool! Thank you for this video, Mandi! After adding complex chapter headers in my ebook, I definitely see the problem it has. The whole reflowable ebook thing really makes it hard to add any fancy chapter headers or images. I'll probably avoid adding any chapter headers in my ebook in the future to save myself the headache.
Great info! Thank you
Thank you.
I use adobe indesign. It’s the absolute best and my idea of customization of an ebook is to let people who design playback programs care about their products. So what I need to know is who’s the best.
What about the old format to create the ebook? The one u used called Caliber from ur old video? Is that one not good anymore?
I’m hoping that you get to the skinny very quickly.
Doesn’t KDP format the ebook for a price?
