Hi
Thanks for your thoughts :wink:
I have published the eBook and would like to comment on it too.
I understand that a lot of you read it on the computer. Designing eBooks can be challenging, and designing them for multiple platforms is close to impossible.
At least a lot of compromises have to be made.
Much of the critique we have got, has to do with the readers.... not the actual eBook.
Regarding the navigation we have tried very hard to make it easy to find whatever you want to find.
But let us know how we could have made it easier / better.
You can argue against our decision to put the illustrations in blocks between each section. That was a decision we made, and one can argue for or against it.
But your opinions are very welcome
I will make a couple of posts to try to clarify a few things.
First using the reading software called iBooks on a Mac computer.
Sorry about the quality of the images.... I have tried to make small file sizes.
When I open the software I get to the Library, where you can divide your books into collections, and call each collection what you want. You can also buy books directly from here :
When opening the book you will find several options.
For eksample there is a Table of Contents:
There are several indexes.
There are also lots of links in the text to relevant illustrations, or other parts of the text.
A challenge with large images and text that floats free, like in ePub, is that the legend (or part of it), may jump to the next page.
But that depends on the screen size you read on.
You can highlight text in several colors, make notes, search the text in several ways etc.
When highlighted, you can add notes, and search in your notes in a side panel too. You can also add bookmarks, and search in them too.
You can change font, and font size. You can choose if the screen should be white, sepia or black, depending on the light in the room or your preference.
You can send quotes directly from the book in emails:
If you have comments or questions feel free to shoot
I will do my best to answer.
More coming soon.
Kind regards
