    Do you recommend converting MS Word to epub in Kotobee, or in Draft2Digital, or in KDP?

    I haven't formatted and uploaded an ebook to KDP since last year. Do they still have Kindle Create?

    Your book formatting course recommends and is built around Adobe InDesign, with no mention of Kotobee. I'm trying to evaluate which of these formatting options would be better for my needs and wondering how well Kotobee stacks up against Vellum, Atticus, and InDesign.

    • @MandiLynnWrites
      @MandiLynnWrites  ปีที่แล้ว

      The book formatting course is just intended to teach you how to format using Adobe InDesign. The name "Adobe InDesign" is in the title of the course

    • @sfmike533
      @sfmike533 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@MandiLynnWrites Yes, I get that. I'm trying to decide whether Kotobee is adequate for my needs, or if I need to go full-on InDesign. Your marketing video says that InDesign is better than Vellum, Atticus, or Word, but does not address how it compares to Kotobee. That's why I asked.

    I have been using Kotobee for a few years and have the most up to date version, but recently it has been frustrating exporting to Kindle devices like scribe or even kindle for iPad, with chapters and sub chapters showing incorrectly or not at all in the contents pane. Has this ever happened to you?

    • @MandiLynnWrites
      @MandiLynnWrites  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I still use Kotobee and haven't had any issues. I'd reach out to their customer service.

    Ok, everything is fine. I wonder how favored this kotobee is. In other words, what percentage of the e-book reader audience knows this system. Anyone know about this? If the purpose is only to read, it does not seem necessary at first glance.

    • @MandiLynnWrites
      @MandiLynnWrites  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      You can use it to format ebooks for epub to upload to websites like KDP, you just have to make sure the ebook doesn't have interactive elements. The interactive elements (likes quizes and videos) only work in kotobee

    How much do you charge for this service? I'm interested in hiring you to format my book. It's already completed, published and printed in paperback. Do you have a website or an email I can contact you at?
