What I would like to know is what is the most simple and efficient way to create an ebook with TOC, each texts being a chapter. What process and software ? Several softwares are often mentionned here such as Calibre, Sigil and Mobipocket editor but what method is best suited for me ? And which format for justified text ? PDF, Epub, LRF ?
The easiest way is to zip up all the source files including images and then input it into Calibre which accepts zip and an input format. Ust be sure to match whatever structure the original had. Once inside of Calibre you can generate several output formats.
