eBook Development

Our eBook services cover fixed-layout ePub, fixed-layout KF8, interactive ePub 3.0 and KF8, ONIX metadata tagging services, content porting, Smart PDFs, LINK PDFs, Universal PDF creation, and proofreading.

Because ePub formats are increasingly gaining support from publishers, eBook retailers, and developers in academic and non-academic publishing, converting content is especially important currently. The utility of this format is that they can be read on a wide range of software and platforms including the tablets, mobile phones, standalone eBook readers, and the Web. S4Carlisle offers eBook formatting services at a low cost while maintaining professional quality. A majority of formats including PDF, Microsoft Word, InDesign, or printed texts can be converted into the eBook format.
