HOW TO FORMAT AN EBOOK - Basic Formatting With Word & Draft2Digital (EPUB)

HOW TO FORMAT AN EBOOK - Basic Formatting With Word & Draft2Digital (EPUB)// Today I have another video that's a part of my Beginner's Guide to Self-Publishing a Book series here on YouTube. In a previous video I did a tutorial on how to publish and format a print book on Draft2Digital, and today I wanted to show you how to use Draft2Digital to format your ebook! You can also publish your ebook using Draft2Digital, but if you don't have to. The best part about Draft2Digital is that they allow you to format your book and download the EPUB file you need to upload your ebook to other retailer websites!

From start to finish. You made the process so seamless. This was the first/last video I came across that instruction gave me exactly if not more than I needed. I'm beyond grateful. God bless you for your help and straight to the point tutorial.

I appreciate this video so much it's got me right at the edge of the finishing touches for my first ebook, thank you!

[VMSawh]

Excellent video! Thanks for showing us. This is so useful!

[Imccfrccpfs]

Omg thank you so much for this video, I was going to ask you about this exact subject, as I had uploaded a word document to D2D with full formatting before I uploaded it and couldn’t figure out why it was messed up on D2D now I know.

Watching your tutorial & learning a lot.thnx for sharing 👍

[Bishopoflyons]

Thank you Mandi. I really enjoyed your tutorial. It was very informative and insightful.

[shoomapadoo]

Thank you for posting and sharing. Very informative and helpful information.

Would have been nice if you had shown how to highlight the chapters, so a reader can go to a specific place in the book. Overall a nice vid though.

So quick question. If I already have an LLC which is not related to my writing but may be eventually should I use it or not?

Hello. I have an epub formatted for a novel. But there is an extra space after each paragpaph. Is it linked to epub format or it can be changed when formatting it ? Many thanks

[darrylhughes]

I have a question, Mandi Lynn. I know that you have a book cover service that you provide, but do you have a book promotion video service as well? I've seen Bethanny's book video and I'd kill for something like it, and I know you have a video on how to make one yourself, but I'm a total techno-phobe without any computer skills in need of some who knows what they're doing. Just asking.

My editor has fixed some errors in my ebook. How do I upload the new one on Draft2Digital and replace the previous one?

[evamejiaartist]

Hi, I watch your videos all the time. I love them btw! You did say very basic there any place holders, I mean by that is....section breaks before a new chapter begins. To separate the thanks. Eva J Mejia

Hi. Can i publish puzzle books on Draft2Digital?

[readEvafantasybooks]

Mindi, I have a question. I chose to enlist my book on all platforms. My question is: Would I have to individually do a Tax and Bank info for each platform? Thank you in Advance.

Have you ever added a "text message" in your text? I've had a hard time separating a text message from the regular text.

[musick]

I dont like the Fonts and Font size of Draft2digital. It also changed the line spacing . I did all the formatting in MS Word and D2D changed all that upon upload.
What can i do if i wish to retain my formatting?

[bobsixer]

Do Draft 2 Digital charge for this software? You show it being used to produce an EPUB file for distributing elsewhere. Do they charge you for that? If you distribute through them, does that cost money?

[stevesculptor]

I have a question about your course please;
I'm scanning pages from a old book, with line drawings, text blocks etc. to reformat. I used to do this in AA DC.
Do you cover this in your course?
Thank you
