writing own document for ebook format
I am wanting to write a document to become a ebook/epub.
![]() Can anyone give me some direction. Note: you are talking to a person who does not know a whole lot of computer language (and is feeling quite lost as I read a lot of posts on this forum), so, as I would truly appreciate some guidance, please go gentle on computer lingo. ![]() |

For what it is worth I use an HTML editor, and then put the documents into a template I've developed. Other people seem to use Sigil, which has its own forum. Regards, Alex |

There is a wiki article called Book authoring software that should help with this.

Try using sigil if you want to start from scratch, the author has written a great guide on the googlecode page.
