Can i print a book made on ibooks author

Hi,  am just starting out with Ibooks author and wanted to know if you can make printed copies of a book you write?  there are times in my line of work where workers will not have acess to a computer or an Ipad.  second question some our guys use a galaxy note is there anyway these guys will beable to use the book? say in a PDF

Yes, you can export or print as PDF and have that printed out if you like - of course any interactivity will be negated.

  • HT5071 Can I create a book using the IBooks Author word processing software, save it as a PDF, then have it professionally printed by an offset press to sale in brick and mortar stores? If so, is this procedure free me from any IBooks restrictions?

    It's your content, under your control.
    If you output as an .ibooks file, and you want to sell it, the store is the only outlet, otherwise, you can do as you wish.

  • EPub conversion of a book made by iBooks Author ?

    To get a book made by iBooks Author, into the iBookstore, a ePub format has to be "available" when applying for a iTunes account
    (Able to deliver book content in EPUB format, passing the latest version of EpubCheck)
    Does iBooks Author convert to ePub ?
    Or is this ePub format not required when using iBooks Author?

    Hello Niki,
    It's all seems a bit confusing doesn't it? Here's my explanation ... Historically, to add a book to the Apple iBookstore, the file needed to be in epub format and pass a valadition check. So, we all learned how to do that. Now, Apple has added a new format, .ibook. To make books in this format all you do is create a book using iBook Author. There is no need to convert ibooks made in iBooks Author into epub. They meet Apple's specifications. In fact, ibook is a type of epub.
    So now we all have to ways to get books into the Apple iBookstore: epub AND iBook Author.
    Clear as mud?

  • Can I sell books made with iBooks Author in the UK iTunes store?

    Hi all,
    I'm a UK-based musician who publishes a range of tuition books on playing the bass guitar. I've spent the last few months devleoping one of these books in iBooks Author, and the end results are really impressive. I submitted the book to the iTunes store last week (after setting up a US Tax ID etc) and it was approved in the US store yesterday. Here's a link to the relevant page:
    http://itunes.apple.com/us/book/bass-players-guide-to-scales/id534940432?mt=13
    My question is, is there any way I can make this book available to customers in all countries? I filled in all the info/pricing etc for all countries when I uploaded the book, but it's only approved for sale in the United States so far. Is there just a delay in the other stores being approved or can it only be the US for textbooks? I notice that the UK iTunes store does not have a textbooks category. Am getting worried now that I shouldn't have put it in the Textbooks category, although I don't remember being able to choose another option.
    Any help greatly appreciated!
    Cheers
    Stuart

    It is possible to publish books created in iBooks Author outside of the US. They will just not be able to appear in the Textbooks category as it's currently a US only category.
    I can see in the UK store that you've got two editions of the same book for sale. One has screen grabs and is clearly filled with iBA features for £9.99 and the other at £6.49 with no preview images which I assume is in standard ePub format - both are in the Arts & Entertainment -> Music category.
    Congrats!

  • HT5071 Can I publish a book made in ibooks to newsstand?

    I am looking to publish some content to Newsstand.
    I have been looking for software to help me and I have come across the ibooks app.
    Will this app allow me to publish to Newsstand?

    Yes, all this:

    I think there are 3rd party companies that will do it for you, which you can probably find via google.

  • Want to see examples of creative photo-based iBooks made in iBooks Author

    Can anyone direct me to some creative, high-quality photo based books made in iBooks Author? Not how-to books, but well done, interactive, photo-essay books. Books where photos and words interact would be especially helpful. I have searched on the iTunes store, but have yet to find any good examples.

    vinnyvg:
    You are man who makes assumptions based on what, I don't know.
    Nowhere in anything I wrote is there anything to suggest "You seem to indicate you cannot create your own style by taking a basic iBA template and making changes to suit your preferred colour scheme and within the book set a layout which compliments your pictures and offer an interesting composition to prospective buyer."
    Where do you come up with such things?
    You also appear to read very selectively.
    You say, "I suggest you first master iBooks Author and its functions before setting out on a project."
    Yet, I had already written this:
    "I have since completely built my first iBook..."
    Complete, I might add, with its "own style" I made by "taking a basic iBA template and making changes to suit your preferred color scheme."
    "IF you cannot find photo books on the iBooks store.... Go to a book shop or library and study the various layouts for your ideas."
    I am not looking for layout ideas per se. I am looking to see what other creative people have done with the tools of iBooks Author, tools that are new to me, so that I might use those tools to better execute the ideas in my head. I cannot find this kind of information in a library or book shop.
    Currently, in the iBooks store, there are a total of 86 "Made for iBooks" books in the Arts and Entertainment selections and I can find no Photography and certainly no photo essay book sections. Only a few of those 86 books are photography books and they tend to be celebrity based. There must be at least hundreds, probably thousands, of photo based iBooks somewhere on the iBooks store made by non-celebrity photographers. Among these, there must be some jewels. I have not found them. I had hoped that somewhere out there there would be someone such as yourself with more experience with iBooks Author and the iBooks store who could have pointed me toward them.
    A knowledgable person with a desire to help could have done so in one sentence.

  • Screenshots from iBooks made by iBooks Author

    Hi everyone,
    is it possible to disable screenshots in a book made by ibooks author?
    Thanks a lot.
    Arie

    You can't disable the ability, but devs have a way to obfuscate the screen at a given time, making it a waste of time for the user if all they do is hit the buttons.
    In the end, tho,, there are ways to capture the data that are still trivial enough, so the rule that is most quoted is - if you have something you don't want captured like that, don't put it on any mobile device

  • HT5071 How does Apple decide when a book - created in iBooks Author - is free versus when it is paid?

    I am considering creating a book made with iBooks Author but have a couple of unanswered questions. What determines how Apple chooses whether my book can make it into the ranks of being a paid book? In other words, I don't want to put a whole bunch of time and effort into creating a book that I want to sell, only to have Apple decide that the book can only be downloaded for free. Is there a way to guarantee that my book will be eligible to sell (as opposed to giving it away for free)? What are the requirements for creating a paid book in iBooks Author?

    There are no guarantees.
    I'm not sure, however, that if Apple decided it wasn't fit for publishing under a paid contract that they would then turn around and accept it as free, sorry. There are too many details involved and I'd think if you want it in the store you'd work to make it acceptable all around.
    See Apple - iTunes - Partner Programs - Book Publishers for publishing details.

  • Does the iPad 1 support ibooks made with ibooks author?

    Well, i'm planning on buying an ipad 1 because is still capable and is cheaper than the 2 right now, and something wich is very frustrating for me is, do some apps are still fully compatible? as the title say's, the new books made with ibooks author are compatible?

    With the current software ..books created using iBooks Author cannot be viewed on iPhones.
    iBooks Author creates books that can only...be used with iPads and on Macs with Mavericks installed, by using iBooks.
    Thats it...no rumours. Blogs or to be more accurate...some of those who  contribute to them seem to either be totally stupid, or like to make themselves look as if they have inside knowledge.
    Apple created iBooks Author to allow self publishers create and publish books to the store. But not just novels or text only type books. iBA made these books allow audio / video ..and much much more than any novel. That being so....most interactive multi media books will not really display well on a screen the size if the iPhone.
    Apple are more concerned in getting iPads in use more by business and education at all levels.
    The only rumour that may well become fact is a larger sized screen for a bigger iPad  mid to late 2014.

  • Is there any way to embed the pdf file in the book created in iBooks Author to make it available to be downloaded or sent to email? So that the user can print it out.

    Is there any way to embed the pdf file in the book created in iBooks Author to make it available to be downloaded or sent to email?
    I'm making the book for children and there is one chapter providing coloring pages. So I wish to attach pdf files that allow users to download it at the end of chapter so that  they can print it out. Been searching through discussion, I've found some advice about taking screen snapshot page-by-page > then send the pics from photo album to email. However, I'm wondering if there's a way that make the process easier.

    Warehouse that PDF on your own server, then link to it from your book.

  • I created a book at the Ibooks author. But there are pages where the number of the page does not appear. How I can solve this problem? I thank you very much for any tip.

    I created a book at the Ibooks author. But there are some pages which the number of page is not visible. What can I do to see the number of the page?

    Have you changed the template?
    Some pages may not have numbers in place as default.  If you have changed the page or the template page, you may have added a object which as pushed the number out of view, or an image may be in a layer on top of the text.
    If you select one object on the page...then go to Edit, select all, you should see the outlines of any content no matter that content may not be seen. Look at the bottom for a page width rectangle outline.. IF its there, you need to shuffle the content until you find that box, and use Arrange > bring to front.

  • If i already published a book can i sell my book as an ibook with apple??

    Hi there ,
    If i already published a book can I sell my book as an ibook with apple??

    Apple do not  really get concerned about authors who publish  elsewhere.
    If you want to publish and sell your books on the Apple  store, you will need to open a paid book account, submit your bank details and  study and agree contracts and you will needs a USA   EIN tax form.
    Your books need to be in an acceptable format, ePub  or if you want the interactive facilities of iBooks Author, you can download the free software and after learning about the application and  its functions and  facilities.
    If you  do not want to be involved  - you can use aggregators, who will do most of the work, but will  need you to cover a fairly substancial outlay first.

  • Can I share my books in my iBook app with an iPhone visiting on my network?

    Can I share my books in my iBook app with an iPhone visiting on my network?

    Your hotspot will be billed by AT&T or Verizon based on your iPhone's model. Only the iPhone 4 from Verizon would allow a Verizon hotspot. Others have posted information revealing that the Verizon 3G connection is somewhat slower than the AT&T service. Also, the Verizon service suspends the use of hotspot when you take a phone call. The AT&T service continues during calling.
    Selecting the hotspot feature under General> Settings> Personal Hotspot will change your data plan from your previous 250MB, 2GB, or unlimited amount to a new 4GB plan that includes tethering. AT&T charges me $45 instead of my Unlimited, but No Tethering Allowed, $30.
    You can connect three devices that have WiFi. Verizon hotspots can connect five. Your speed should be about the same as the iPhone 4 browsing speed on 3G. If your phone is on WiFi, the devices need to connect separately to that WiFi, not to your hotspot. I would love to see a software update that allows my WiFi connection to be shared, so I don't have to manually connect the iPods that my boys use one at a time.
