I’m in the process of formatting a book for ePublishing, and I want to make sure it looks professional across different platforms like Kindle, Apple Books, and Kobo. There are so many software options out there—Scrivener, Vellum, Adobe InDesign, Atticus, and even free tools like Calibre.
I’m looking for something that’s easy to use but also offers flexibility in formatting, so the final result looks polished and meets industry standards. Some tools seem great for design but have a steep learning curve, while others are beginner-friendly but might lack advanced features.
For those who have experience publishing eBooks, which software do you prefer and why? Do you have any tips for making the process smoother? Also, are there any common mistakes to avoid when formatting an eBook?
Would love to hear your insights! What software do you swear by for ePublishing?
The best software for formatting an eBook depends on your needs. Adobe InDesign is great for professional layouts, while Scrivener is ideal for writers organizing long manuscripts. Kindle Create simplifies formatting for Amazon Kindle, and Vellum is excellent for beautiful eBook designs on Mac. Calibre is a free option for converting and formatting various eBook formats.
