How to Format Your Self-Published Book How to Format Your Self-Published Book by Moira Allen Return to DIY Publishing · Print/Mobile-Friendly Version As children, we were advised, "Don't judge a book by its cover!" Yet this is precisely what we do in nearly every area of life --especially when it comes to books! If you're contemplating self-publishing--whether via a print-on-demand or traditional printer--it's vital to keep that in mind. Unfortunately, getting a good cover often does mean hiring a pro -- but fortunately, you don't have to shell out big bucks to make the interior of your book look good! Step 1: Proofread! A professional "look" won't save a book riddled with errors. Step 2: Look at a Book! I'm always amazed by books produced by authors who apparently never noticed what a professionally published book looks like! One of the most common "DIY" errors I see in self-published books is double-spacing between paragraphs. Step 3: Establish Your Format Now it's time to set up a basic layout for the interior of your book.

Comparison of e-book formats The following is a comparison of e-book formats used to create and publish e-books. The EPUB format is the most widely supported vendor-independent XML-based (as opposed to PDF) e-book format; that is, it is supported by the largest number of e-Readers, including Amazon Kindle Fire (but not standard Kindle).[1] See table below for details. Format descriptions[edit] Formats available include, but are not limited to: Broadband eBooks (BBeB)[edit] Comic Book Archive file[edit] Compiled HTML[edit] CHM format is a proprietary format based on HTML. DAISY – ANSI/NISO Z39.86[edit] The Digital Accessible Information SYstem (DAISY) is an XML-based open standard published by the National Information Standards Organization (NISO) and maintained by the DAISY Consortium for people with print disabilities. DAISY is already aligned with the EPUB technical standard, and is expected to fully converge with its forthcoming EPUB3 revision.[3] DjVu[edit] DjVu is a format specialized for storing scanned documents.
