Reflowable ebook
Hi,
I'd like to create a reflowable epub with Sigil but all I can create is a simple one. Is there a way to do that? Thanks. |

You'd have to try really, really hard NOT to create a reflowable epub with Sigil.

Here are some basic steps: - Add your book pages (title, dedication, epigraphs, chapters, copyright page, acknowledgements, etc.) into Sigil....keep them as separate pages. You can use the "Add Existing Files" function to do that. - Add your stylesheet. You can use the "Add Existing Files" if you already have one made, or, create one from scratch. Make sure you link the xhtml files to the stylesheet by highlighting the files, right clicking, and selecting "Link Stylesheets..." - Clean up your coding as needed - Click Save |

It seems complicated. I thought this would be an easy task but it's not. I will use simple ebooks...
Thank you anyway for the explanations. |

But you'll still want to examine the eBook code and make any edits as needed to make the code as simple as possible.
