1. Web page production

Softscape HTML Maker 3 download address

A template-based tool software for converting text files into web page files (Txt2html , Text to Html). Just put the title and content of the article in the text file in order, and after processing by the program, you can quickly generate a group of HTML files with index files and "previous page" and "next page" links. It is a quick way to create e-books. E-books are a great helper for "bookstore" and "skills" sites. Free software.

Of course, this software is only suitable for mass production of e-book novel content. Dreamweaver and FrontPage are still required for the design and production of templates and special pages.

2. E-book synthesis (exe format)

ebook edit pro

Advantages: quite satisfactory, almost no outstanding advantages ^_^ I prefer it because it software interface and production steps. If the e-book does not have advanced "technologies" such as Flash and JS, it is recommended to use version 3.21, as the produced e-book will be dozens of kilobytes smaller.

Disadvantages: It does not support automatic generation of directories. Of course, you can use preset bookmarks to achieve the purpose. When the created e-book is opened, there is always a window that flashes by quickly, which is not a good feeling, although I usually don't notice it. The interface is relatively simple, and the e-book interface template is basically difficult to use.

eBook Workshop

Advantages: The software provides e-book interface templates. It has the most complete functions and is a domestic software recommended by many people.

Disadvantages: I really don’t like the “About” setting. I have to create a separate HTM page, and I can’t use e-book files. There are about 10 e-book interface templates... Hmm... I personally don’t like many, and there are no instructions for making templates myself... I don’t know why, but the e-book I created does not support JS arrow keys. Page turning...the reason is under study...

eBook Pack Express

Advantages: The most appreciable thing is the direct click effect on the toolbar.

Disadvantages: The e-book interface is too simple and does not even support custom toolbar icons.

Desktop Author

The e-book creation software produced by the famous ACD company can create page-turning e-books with a very beautiful and lifelike interface. Unfortunately, its fatal flaw is that it does not support large amounts of text input. Do I have to post it paragraph by paragraph? cold! So now they are mostly used to create e-books that combine pictures and text such as photo albums.

3. Icon production

Advantages: The software interface is elegant and beautiful ^_^ Powerful functions!

Disadvantages: None?

I love e-books Community

Highly recommended! There are two very, very good e-book production forums. There are many production tutorials and tool downloads, and there are also many enthusiasts and production experts to exchange skills and experiences.

e-type publication forum

Relatively very professional...well...also a bit deserted. This is where I started making e-books^_^

Lao Ma’s original space

The website of Qiangren Lao Ma (author of ComicsViewer) has some suggestions for creating e-books, software for clearing exe e-book registry junk, and some useful e-book tools. Download of software.

ps. Regarding the formats of e-books, there are mainly three types: exe, chm, and pdf. For some people, exe is very disliked because of the limitations of the supported platform and the generation of registry garbage; But for other people (...well...like me), only exe can customize icons, and even this alone is enough reason to like exe^_^
