Production

ePub is the most common format for ebooks. Read more about ePub’s here.

You can. But it must be checked and validated in an epubhecker. You can find more information here.


Of course you can. Check out our article on cover tips to give you great advice on the design and layout of covers. Read the answer to the following question as well as our production tip article before you get started.


Images should be of good quality, and images suitable for zooming should have at least 1000px in the shortest length. However, the pictures must not exceed a total of 4 million pixels. If the images have text, they should be in SVG format (make sure the text is clear and readable). All covers must have a minimum of 1400 px (pixels) for the longest length.

Tables and text should be "real" and not images.

Use JPG for all "normal" images. Use PNG or SVG only for export of vector graphics (svg) or used by transparency (png).

Notes are something you can add to the ebook while reading it (after publishing) . Hyperlinks can be included. Tables must be real tables and not pictures.


You can read the book on all platforms where you can read an ebook. Most platforms use ePub, except Amazon that uses mobi files.

It is important to keep in mind that text / content in an ebook is fluent. The ebook you get back will therefore often look slightly different from the word file you provided. PDF optimized for paper print is not suitable for ebooks, but suitable for production.

Common mistakes are typographical errors, so it is important to have good language washing and proofreading before it is sent to production. If the damage has occurred send an email to support@eboknorden.no and we will help you solve the issue.
