Kindle image size rules change again

David Bergsland Posted on January 15, 2018 by David BergslandJanuary 15, 2018

Again, Kindle image size rules change. Not a whole lot, but the new outrageous Kindle image sizes become more understandable. I was reading a Kindle formatting guide, from Amazon, the other day which said full-width images needed to be 3000 pixels … Continue reading →

2018 ebook conversion guide using InDesign CC

David Bergsland Posted on November 28, 2017 by David BergslandNovember 28, 2017

I thought a good way to start the new year would be a 2018 ebook conversion guide. Things changed quite a bit in 2017. Plus, CC 2018 added some handy new features. Remember, I have a seemingly unusual attitude. I believe … Continue reading →

The ebook future grows complex

David Bergsland Posted on November 17, 2017 by David BergslandNovember 17, 2017

The ebook future grows complex — more confusing as far as I can tell. Right now in my work, ebook design is being largely constrained by the limits of Kindle. I’ve mentioned this several times. Increasingly Apple ebooks are becoming … Continue reading →

The stupid Kindle argument continues unnecessarily

David Bergsland Posted on November 10, 2017 by David BergslandNovember 10, 2017

I’ve been fighting the stupid Kindle argument more and more lately. Kindle remains stupid, as far as formatting is concerned. Kindle’s immense list of things which cannot be done remains. Worse yet, they continue to strip out a lot of … Continue reading →

InDesign CC 2018 adds borders to shading

David Bergsland Posted on October 19, 2017 by David BergslandOctober 10, 2017

I’ve waited a long time to write this: InDesign CC 2018 adds borders to shading! This is one I’ve been pushing for over the past decade or so. I was excited when they added paragraph shading. I never could understand why the … Continue reading →

InDesign CC 2017 whimpers in esoterically, under the radar

David Bergsland Posted on December 7, 2016 by David BergslandDecember 7, 2016

Yes, I said that InDesign CC 2017 whimpers in under the radar. Version 12.0 has very little for me. Your usage may vary. But, this is all a normal part of the process as software matures. And, have no doubt, InDesign is … Continue reading →

Briskly: new font release for Fall 2016

David Bergsland Posted on September 26, 2016 by David BergslandSeptember 26, 2016

I’ve put this off for years, but it just seemed time. Briskly: new font release is a font made from one sample of my handwriting. An ASCII font (256-character), it will work well for desktop, Web, and ePUB. The only place you will … Continue reading →

Converting Books to Ebooks with InDesign CC

David Bergsland Posted on September 16, 2016 by David BergslandSeptember 16, 2016

Where is the future of books?

David Bergsland Posted on June 29, 2016 by David BergslandJune 29, 2016

I just posted a link to this article from The Bookseller: stating the digital revolution is definitely not over. Of course, that is one of those DUH! facts. The future of books is even more complex than you may think, … Continue reading →
