{"product_id":"2940016138060","title":"EPUB Machine (Your EPUB Formatting Butler)","description":"\u003ci\u003eEPUB Machine (Your EPUB Formatting Butler)\u003c\/i\u003e is the second of\u003cbr\u003ethe three user manuals for the Nepo Press web-based book formatting\u003cbr\u003esystem. We might call the system EPUB Machine when making EPUB files,\u003cbr\u003eMobi Machine when making Mobi files, and PDF Machine when making\u003cbr\u003e\"camera-ready\" PDF files for printing paperback books. The same\u003cbr\u003esystem does all three. This book focuses on how to make EPUB files\u003cbr\u003e(eBooks) for the Barnes \u0026amp; Noble NOOK and NOOK Apps, Kobo eReaders,\u003cbr\u003eApple's iBooks---just about every eReader except Kindle---showing you\u003cbr\u003eeverything you need to know to get started. If you want to create\u003cbr\u003eEPUB eBooks, this is the book to start with.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor making Mobi files (for Amazon Kindle and Kindle Apps), start with\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eMobi Machine (Your Kindle Formatting Butler)\u003c\/i\u003e. These two manuals\u003cbr\u003econtain essentially the same information---once you have read one, you\u003cbr\u003eprobably do not need the other. Pick based on whether your primary\u003cbr\u003einterest is EPUB or Mobi.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter you have read one of these manuals, you are ready to make\u003cbr\u003eeBooks, but you'll probably want to read the third manual, \u003ci\u003eAdvanced\u003cbr\u003eMobi and EPUB Machines\u003c\/i\u003e, eventually. It covers advanced formatting\u003cbr\u003etechniques including how to make \"camera-ready\" PDF files for\u003cbr\u003epublishing and selling printed books through CreateSpace and Amazon.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor self-publishers, EPUB Machine hits the sweet spot with the best\u003cbr\u003ecombination of high quality, low cost, ease of use, and flexibility.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat do you need? You need a computer with a web browser, a word\u003cbr\u003eprocessor or text editor, an internet connection, and a Nepo Press\u003cbr\u003ebook account at nepotism.net\/formatting (you can start with a free\u003cbr\u003etrial account). You don't need to install any software. Your same\u003cbr\u003emanuscript will work for Mobi files, EPUB files, and PDF files, giving\u003cbr\u003eyou \"one-stop\" formatting with nearly instant turn-around. Format\u003cbr\u003eyour books on your schedule, not someone else's. No limit to the\u003cbr\u003enumber of revisions, so fixing typos or changing your list of \"Other\u003cbr\u003eBooks by This Author\" can be done whenever you wish.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf you are using the Nepo Press service, or planning to use it, this\u003cbr\u003eis the \"missing manual\" to help get you oriented and up to speed\u003cbr\u003equickly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe trick is to add simple, visible markup to your manuscript then\u003cbr\u003efeed that to the EPUB Machine. The result is a professional looking\u003cbr\u003eeBook, without the formatting errors so commonly seen in\u003cbr\u003eself-published books. \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Nepo Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47164549202160,"sku":"2940016138060","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940016138060_p0.jpg?v=1763629808","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940016138060","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
