eBook Formats

There are several different eBook formats available. If you’re only publishing with Amazon so your book is exclusive for Kindle Unlimited, you’ll only need a print file and a Kindle file. If you’re publishing wide, we can create a generic ePub file that will work for the various other sites or we can generate specific files for the various book sellers. This is a simple one click operation on our end, so please include all files you’d like us to generate for you:

  • Print
    • Include what size or sizes if you’re producing multiple paperback formats
  • Kindle
  • Barnes & Noble
  • Kobo
  • Apple Books
  • Generic ePub – best option if you’re using an aggregator like Draft2Digital or Smashwords

Other – Please Include the Following If You Have Them

  • Logo: if you have publishing company and logo, both can be integrated onto the title and copyright pages
  • Photos: if you have an author’s photo for your biography page
  • Graphics: if you have an image for the chapter headers and ornamental breaks

Please include information for all the above items. If you have any questions, please contact us at editors (at) cissellink (dot) com
