Fixed Layout Illustrated Books for the iBookstore

YUDU works with major US and UK publishers such as AA Publishing, Weldon Owen and Random House, US to produce books in the Apple fixed layout ePub format. This is the latest solution devised by Apple for illustrated book publishers to move their publications on to the iBookstore. Unlike traditional ePub 2.0.1, it retains the formatting of the original publication regardless of size or orientation.

Return on investment: YUDU illustrated book customers have found this to be an excellent solution to their digital book requirements. Some book customers are seeing a genuine ROI in only a few weeks, and it is a relatively simple process using YUDU to monetise their content digitally.

Illustrated book publishers are also able to add multimedia content into the fixed layout books. You can add in audio and video files to make the content more engaging and interactive for your users, leading to a loyal readership for future content.

YUDU is one of the most experienced conversion houses in the world when it comes to complex illustrated EPUB. This is why we have been highly recommended to some publishers by the likes of Apple. We have an extremely detailed in-house process of proofing against the original files, which is particularly important for high quality illustrated or image-rich content.

We have a straightforward process to get started:

  • Sign your order confirmation
  • Send your files via our upload link or FTP
  • YUDU convert these for you
  • They are passed through 2 stages of proofing (if required)
  • The final completed files are delivered to the customer or submitted on your behalf
