Website for OS X Driver for ebookwise 1150

jhempel24 · 12-31-2007, 01:23 AM

I've seen links and talk about software for OS X for the eBookwise and I can't seem to find it anywhere. I keep hearing about ETI, but no matter what PC I am at I can't seem to access their site. Any help would be great!

Thanks

You can download the USB driver for the Mac here.

For uploading files you will need the personal content server which is a web based application to upload your content to your personal bookshelf.

You can find out about all of that in the eBookwise help section:

Thanks for the site. I've done the uploading through the content server, but unfortunately my files are almost always over 2MB. Using book designer to create imp's makes things rather large.

That is because you are using multi-language support which causes BD to make images instead of text. Turn off this feature and your books will work better and be sized better.

actually Multi-Language Support is turned off in the settings. is there somewhere else I need to turn it off at? I know sometimes it asks me if I want to turn it on and I say no

That should be enough I think but if you check the books MobiRead releases you will find that they are seldom above 1 Meg unless they have lots of images in them. Image sizes can be trimmed as well if that is what the problem is for your books.

Using the Create Book Image with BookDesigner, I am constantly getting 3-4MB files. The reason I use Create Book Image instead of make IMP is that I don't like the fact that the margins are edge to edge on the create IMP. If I am able to change the margins that way, then that would be great

The only site I know of is ebooktechnologies.com/.

The software can be found on their download page. If the link doesn't work, go the home page > Support > Downloads.

Good luck!

well, tried with IE, and Firefox, and the site just doesn't seem to work for me. what software are you getting from there, and maybe I can find it somewhere else to download?
