What do I need to know about eBook formats?
There are three main eBook formats. Learn which kind best suits your manuscript:
- Reflowable (Standard) eBooks: Reflowable eBooks are the most popular type of eBooks among self-publishing authors. They are called "reflowable" because the content “flows” or adapts to the device’s size, resolution, and orientation. Readers can adjust the font size and margins on their devices. Reflowable eBooks are ideal for books that are primarily text, such as novels and text-heavy non-fiction.
- Fixed-Layout eBooks: Fixed-Layout eBooks are “typeset” just like print books and retain the same exact appearance across all devices. However, they are not as widely compatible as reflowable ebooks, and readers cannot adjust font size, margins, etc. This format is ideal for publishing image-rich books that require specific layouts such as cookbooks, children’s books, or coffee table books.
- Enhanced eBooks: Enhanced eBooks contain media such as audio, video, animations, interactive quizzes, etc. Both reflowable eBooks and fixed-layout eBooks can be enhanced eBooks, but feature compatibility varies depending on the platform or device your readers use to read your enhanced eBook.
