Hi there,
I have a problem that has taken too much of my time already .. therefore I am turning to you for help ...My quest:
Publishing a photo book an Amazon KDP in the best way possible
By that I mean
- -the pictures go from side to side or top to bottom (depending on portrait or landscape) - so there is no margin on 2 sides each time
- -the ratio of the picture is not changed
- -compatibility with as many devices as possible
- -navigation feature (hold and swipe on a Kindle) - I can send a picture of that if wanted
I found an example that meets all the requirements (nudity!):*
https://www.amazon.de/Uber-500-Sexfo...s=books&sr=1-3
So I basically just*want the same quality of book like this author.
My research so far
Kindle Support says that the*above book was submitted as a MOBI file and was very likely professionally made.
One seasoned publisher told me that the navigation thing is only possible with Comic-made books (question here would be: was it made with the old one or the current one?)
an uploaded Word-file or kbf does not do the trick
I am working with Calibre since yesterday, so I am really a newbie at this ... should I import a PDF or create the book itself in Calibre?
My questions
- What format to use? (MOBI, I assume?)What tool to use to create the book?If Calibre
- Do I make one html for each photo?
- Or should I put them all on one html page since it looks like pages afterwards anyway?
- How could I automize this?
- How can the navigation feature be created?
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Chris
