what is a good program to download to make a ebook?
Posted Thursday, February 18, 2010 by admin
the book was wrote 15 years ago and is onto paper. I am going to use my OCL to scan each page and upload to microsoft word. So I need a good program that will work with the ocr…any other help offered is welcome as to how to publish etc.
yes I wrote the book so there is no worry about prison etc. what I am looking for is a good program to download so I can upload my paper book into ebook. My plans is to see if a publisher is interested. I wasn’t given the opportunity before since it’s 800+ pages, so I had to xerox all the pages X3 so I could mail the manuscript to the publishers which was very costly in postage and then there was the wait. Ebooks make things so much easier. So I will turn my paper book into a ebook and need to download that program “a ebook maker”
Hi,
I think photoshop is the best program to make ebook cover, this site is selling ebook covers and some other covers you can have idea about designing ebook cover
Mobipocket is a good ebook reader, available on many platforms; and the program to create ebooks is free.
I am not a lawyer, but: As for publishing it, do you own the copyright, or have permission from the copyright holder to publish it? If you don’t you could find yourself in court very quickly facing some serious fines or prison time. It doesn’t matter if you give the copies away, it is still a copyright violation to publish somebody else’s work without permission. Scanning a copy that you acquired legally, for your own use, should fall under fair use provisions, but as soon as you distribute it without permission you have violated the law.
