Formatting eBooks for the Amazon Kindle is a challenge for anyone, even a veteran eBook developer like me. Over the last year I have tested the formatting on the Kindle in ways that no other developer has. In addition to formatting an array of books from a variety of genres, I have developed tests to find out exactly what the Kindle can do, and how to make books look their best on the device.
Now I am passing along that invaluable data to you. Whether you are an author trying to format your first novel or the developer in charge of formatting eBooks for a large publisher, my book, Kindle Formatting, is for you.
This book details the process of formatting a Kindle eBook from beginning to end. It includes tips on getting the contents of your file into HTML, explanations of HTML and CSS coding practices, a complete description of all of the HTML and CSS that is supported on the Kindle, examples of common formatting situations, and detailed information on creating a Mobipocket file from your final source that will give your book some additional features and give you additional sales opportunities.
What information does Kindle Formatting have that you can't find anywhere else? Here is a small sampling:
- Formatting Poetry
- Formatting an Outline
- Actual dimensions of the Kindle screen area and image optimization tips
- How to create links to the built-in Kindle Store
- How to put Buy-Now links in your Kindle books
- Formatting Sidebars and Pull Quotes
- DRM encryption for DTP-published books
- The complete master list of Kindle-supported HTML and CSS with explanations and examples of each tag.
