Hello, I've opened recently a thread in which I asked how to export an Indesign file to EPUB format. Due this question is related but different, I wanted to open a new thread to clarify concepts and to avoid we mix subjects. I was recommended in the last thread to follow a course about creating EPUBS, however, I know how to create EPUBS, the problem is I do not have time to create a new publication coming from the original Indesign file. I need a perfect export, and with the Indesign export methods, I do not get a perfect export. My Indesign file is exported perfectly to PDF, but to EPUB, no it does not work. Even if I chose Fixed Layout EPUB, it does not work either. The thing, is I do not need how to create an EPUB, because my problem is different. My problem is, I need a DIN A4, works fine in an iPad and also in a Kindle. In PDF format, my Indesign file works fine. I export my Indesign file to PDF, and I can see that PDF fine in my PC, in an iPad and also in a Kindle. However, if I export my Indesign file to EPUB, it does not work (even if I select fixed layout). What I need exactly is that when I export to EPUB, Indesign maintain the same behaviour I get with a PDF. What formats works fine when I export from Indesign? From Indesign to ----> PDF, it works fine. I get a perfect file exported. From Indesign to ----> SWF, it works fine. I get a perfect file exported. From Indesign to ----> EPUB, it does not work (even if I select fixed layout). Where is the problem here? Well, the problem is, that a Kindle read perfectly a PDF, however, if I export my Indesign file to EPUB it does not work. Also, if I change the document properties and I adapt it to EPUB, all the content (pictures, text frames, etc.) go away and I get a total madness. All changed. So to summarize the problem, this line of work is okay: Indesign ---> to PDF <---- Kindle (works fine, I can see the PDF fine in the Kindle) Indesign ---> to EPUB <---- Kindle (do not work, I cannot see the EPUB file in the Kindle, the export do not work, even if it is fixed layout). MAGIC SOFTWARE: 3D ISSUE There is a magic software that create perfect exports from PDF to EPUB, its name is 3D Issue. It must, because cost 400 bucks each copy. So I need to export an Indesign file to EPUB and I need it works fine. I cannot re-arrange all the project and start a new project just for EPUB. I need my actual Indesign file can be exported fine to an EPUB. Any solutions? I launch several questions: What about exporting every single page as a JPEG high quality 150 dpi and then I create an Ebook (EPUB) using JPEG pictures for every page? What about exporting from SWF to EPUB? Do you know any magic utility that works fine for this? Perhaps someone knows a magic utility (not so expensive as 3D Issue) that can export fine from PDF to EPUB? All ideas are welcome. And sorry for the extension of my message, but I needed to explain clearly the problem. Kind regards to everyone
