A whole world of rich digital content - meticulously produced, standards-compliant EPUB3, and unmatched in quality. Choose the production that fits your book.
Since day one, ePubSystems has led the promotion of digital-book technologies - and one of our biggest achievements has been introducing the internationally standardised EPUB3 format to the market. For years we encouraged publishers to adopt EPUB3, and today it is the primary, most widespread format for digital reading books.
But our mission isn't over. Most reading apps support only EPUB3's basic capabilities. Our clients have known the difference for years - side images, advanced footnotes, separate text frames, multiple fonts, smart graphics that look great at any screen size, video and audio, interactive and animated books, specially-developed audio books, XEPUB, synchronized audio, game books and more. Our production department delivers all of it, meticulously produced - preserving the book's quality as a digital asset for the author and publisher for years to come.
Prices shown are starting points - every book is quoted per project. Tell us about yours and we'll take it from there.
Basic “running text” production, divided into chapters and paragraphs. Source: InDesign. Suited to “standard” reading books - without many embedded images, footnotes, tables, varied text styling or special graphics. Most reading books are basic text books like this. Includes text & paragraph styling, spacing, chapter headings, single graphics, base fonts, a table of contents, a cover page and more.
Advanced text production with up to 25 advanced elements. Source: InDesign. For running-text books that also contain a number of images, footnotes or other graphic elements - the amount that suits most reading books. Includes pop-up footnotes, side images, click-to-zoom, styled chapter headings, shaded text boxes, bulleted & numbered lists, end-of-chapter linked footnotes and graphic paragraph dividers.
Advanced text production with up to 100 advanced elements. Source: InDesign. For text books with a high number of images, pop-up or end-of-chapter footnotes, image or text tables, image or numbered lists, and separate or side text frames - the amount that suits advanced reading books or academic titles. Includes full text styling, chapter headings, single graphics, base fonts, TOC, cover and more.
Production of a children's or “flat” picture book from the page images, or from the print-ready PDF source. Single-page or spread view, auto-adjusting to device orientation. Suited to children's books, photo books, cookbooks and the like. And to answer before you ask - no, PDF is not a digital-book format.
Production of a children's or image-based book split into layers - preferably from the illustration/design source, or from the PDF after cropping and prep. Landscape or portrait layout, auto-adjusting to device orientation (full landscape recommended). Ideal for children's books, titles with audio or video, and interactive-enriched story books.
A digital book that is essentially an advanced audio player - chapter display, chapter navigation, play/pause, volume control, a seek slider and more. Source: narration recordings (mp3) split into chapters. A special ePubSystems development that plays inside the reading app - no separate audio app needed. A standards-compliant international EPUB3 book!
A digital book that is actually a coloring game, with an endless palette to choose from, undo of recent actions and more. A special ePubSystems development - a coloring book that runs inside the reading app, requiring no other app. A standards-compliant international EPUB3 book!
A synchronized audio layer that narrates highlighted text in sync with the audio. Play/pause, tap to jump to any position, skip sentences forward/back, automatic page turns and more. These books play from inside the SifriApp reading app and need no other app - a standards-compliant international EPUB3 book!
Advanced text production with roughly 200 complex elements. Recommended source: InDesign. For complex running-text books with many images, pop-up or end-of-chapter footnotes, image or text tables, image or numbered lists and side text frames - in XEPUB format, such as extra information in scrollable panels, an embedded video panel, or content embedded from Google systems. Includes full text styling, chapter headings, single graphics, base fonts, TOC, cover and more.
