It wasn’t all that long ago that taking print documentation into the EPUB format required you, as the content provider, to work with a third party “aggregator” and often times surrender your source files. The process was slow, complicated, and very expensive. Given the proliferation of some wonderful off-the-shelf tools, you can now create ePubs that not only validate, but can also include value-added enhancements (such as links and videos) that print documents simply cannot match.
Attend this workshop and learn:
- The tools and techniques required to create ePubs (how much it will cost you and how much you will save per ePub).
- How to use the Adobe Technical Communication Suite to take Microsoft Word or Adobe FrameMaker content to EPUB.
- How to Single Source (make a change in the source content and output updated EPUB files in seconds).
- Some best practices for formatting content for the EPUB format.
