ABOUT AMAZON KINDLE CONVERSION/FORMATTING
With the remarkable increase of people using E-readers, tablets, and portable computers, successful publishers and authors must produce their books in various formats. Kindle formatting entails conversion of eBook manuscripts from PDF, Microsoft Word, or any other digital format to a file format specifically designed for Amazon Kindle devices. Even though PDF and Microsoft Word documents can be viewed on Kindle devices, they cannot be rendered in a reflowing-text presentation. Such documents must be converted to provide a fluid reading experience for Kindle users.
Why Does Automated Kindle Conversion Software Never Work?
Sometimes publishers and authors make attempts to convert their books from PDF or Word to Kindle format. This is usually done through programs available online promising to perform this task quickly and efficiently. The end results, however, aren’t satisfactory, and in most cases, they produce rendered files that look messy and unreadable. This is due to several factors.
First, eBooks usually contain page breaks like those found in print versions of published books. These breaks are included in the title page, table of contents, and chapters. These breaks provide a clearly spaced outline which separates different portions of the book and helps to maintain a visually appealing flow. This is extremely difficult to achieve using most of the eBook conversion programs available in the market.
This software normally produces cluttered running text with no visible breaks that are almost impossible to read. As a result, books that are excellently written end up being bothersome to read. This can lead to unwarranted negative reviews for a publisher or author.
EBooks can also contain unique graphical elements embedded within the text body such as images, tables, footnotes, endnotes, and hyperlinks. These elements need to be incorporated into the eBook in the manner intended by the author.
Automated conversion tools often produce eBooks with poorly positioned graphic elements, and, in some cases, a few elements may be omitted unintentionally during the conversion process. EBooks in the modern era are expected to have a clickable table of contents. This feature enables readers to navigate through sections of the book by clicking on the relevant chapters within the table of contents. However, it is impossible to integrate this feature when using an automated conversion tool.
Which Manuscript Formats are preferred for Kindle Conversion? Word or PDF File Formats?
At Ebookifi, we provide Kindle formatting services covering a wide range of digital text formats. We work with PDF, Adobe Indesign, Microsoft Word, plain text, and files from all open-source word processors. If your manuscript is in both PDF and Microsoft Word, we prefer the Word files to facilitate quick delivery.
We also advise our clients to only submit the final edited manuscripts for conversion to avoid errors in the Kindle format of their eBook. Please contact us if you have any unique formats other than the ones listed above that you need us to convert.
SEE OUR SAMPLES
To give you a glimpse of what you can expect from Ebookifi with regards to Kindle formatting, take a look at our samples.
Font Embed
Books usually contain several different fonts throughout the text to highlight certain points or introduce chapters. These fonts can be lost during conversion making the whole text appear as one flat uniform font. Our conversion techniques involve font embedding to ensure that all the fonts contained in your manuscript look exactly the same in the Kindle format. The samples below will show you how this is achieved.
Styling
EBooks can be published using two layout styles: the reflow or fixed layout. These styles differ on how they are displayed on eBook readers. Our conversion methods ensure that all graphic elements of your eBook, such as images, tables, hyperlinks, and graphs are retained in the Kindle version as they appear in your manuscript. This will be done regardless of whether you opt for a reflowing text format or a fixed layout format. Check out the samples below.
REFLOW VS FIXED LAYOUT KINDLE FORMATTING
- Reflowable format is the most widely used format for eBooks and enables the reader to adjust the size of each page without affecting the flow of the text. This format makes it easier for a reader to zoom a page or change its orientation to suit their specific reading preferences. A book published using the reflow format can be read on gadgets with different screen sizes quite easily since the text will automatically adjust itself to fit different screens.
- Fixed layout formats are less common and feature mostly books containing a lot of images, such as children’s books and comics. These books display full-sized pages all the time. The images and text are placed at fixed points next to each other. If a reader zooms a fixed layout page, the contents won’t automatically adjust themselves to fit the screen size. One must zoom specific portions of the page separately to read the book.
The automatic pricing feature on our website is only applicable for conversions done in the reflowing text format. If your eBook requires a fixed-layout presentation, please contact us or use the quote form for specific pricing.
