Book Creator is an easy to use app (iOS, Android and Windows) for creating an ePub. I described my goal for an initial project in the previous post. The following image gives you the basic idea of the Book Creator interface. You work on one page at a time, position multimedia elements (text, images, video) on this page, and then arrange the elements as desired.
Since this approach is similar to many apps (including PowerPoint and Keynote), promoting Book Creator requires a focus on what might be unique. Book Creator allows a final product to be exported as a PDF, Video and as an Epub. If you are looking for an easy way to create ePubs (easier than Apple’s iBook Author), this might be it. I found the Windows version to lack the feature options of the iOS version (e.g., I think links to external resources are important in ePubs). The Windows version if free. The iPad version is $5.
I uploaded the video version of my sample project to YouTube.The text ends up being difficult to read, but this is a function of converting the video in YouTube.
I think the ePub format is more impressive. If you have the iBook player or another epub reader, you can download the ePub.
I plan a video tutorial for a future post.
