Can I use Indesign to create an ePub for iPad with expandable images?

Hello everyone!  I'm creating a book for iBooks on the iPad.  It is a basic book that has short chapters of text with pictures. Reading Terry White's, the Adobe evangelist, blog I saw that his attempt with InDesign seemed straight forward, without a need for html skills (which I don't have.)  So I would make the investment in InDesign if it is suitable.
BUT! I would like to add an extra feature that I have seen in some iBooks: When  you double-tap an image the text disappears and the image expands and  fills the page. And when you double-tap the image again it goes back to  normal. Can this be done in InDesign? How?
I'd appreciate any help.
Thank you!      

Size your image so that the longest dimension is 1024 pixels.
Screen size of iPad is 1024 x 768.
In iBooks, when a user double-taps on an image, iBooks will open the image in full-screen view and scales the image to its largest dimension.
In normal book view, iBooks displays all images at their maximum size unless they're larger than the iBooks page, in which case they are displayed to the max width or height of the page (until double-tapped on).
You can constrain the image size in iBooks with certain HTML coding. (Unlike other epub display software and devices, iBooks ignores CSS height and width instructions unless you make specific use of a <div> tag.)

  • Have you used InDesign to create educational curricula for the Common Cartridge web standard?

    I will try changing the anti-alias, something I haven't always been paying attention to, THANKS.
    It was a designer that I worked with a few years ago that said she did it in Illustrator. I think it was AI (I have the Master Suite but only use PS, DW and a tiny buit of flash (usually just, here we go again, editing text)) and yes, it was rasterization and not vector, I have them mixed up and not sure what the difference is...
    But she swore by it and I'm fairly certain she was using CS4. I remember having to make small text changes but couldn't because they were images in the PSD file(s) she sent. They definitley looked better than the typed in ones I did later. In fact, I recall getting yelled at for just putting it up there just using the type tool; maybe not using the anti-alias tool was part of the reason but I remember her being very adamant about it...
    Thanks again RikRamsay!

  • Can i use lightroom on my PC, Mac and ipad with the photography CC subscription?

    I have read that desktop programs may be used on 2 devices but does the mobile version count as one of those or can I use it on all 3 with the photography CC subscription?

    The mobile versions do not count against your number of devices.  I am currently running LR on a MAC, an iPhone and an iPad With no problems.
    Note that you can also install CC on more than two computers, but you can only have two machines signed in to CC at the same time.  To run on a 3rd machine, you would have to sign off on one of the other two machines.
    hope this helps.

  • Can I use iMovie to create a video for youtube using an MP3  and a video?

    I have some music I've recorded on Logic Pro that I'd like to post on youtube and am trying to figure the easiest way to link it with either still photos or a video so it'd be OK for youtube. What's the best way to go about this please?

    just drag 'n drop your jpg and your mp3 into the timeline of your Project - done.
    Depending on what version of iM you're using, you can directly upload from within iMovie, or you have to export first, then use YT's upload web interface ...
    in case you own a licence of Quicktime Pro,  open a jpg with it, open in a 2nd window your mp3, select all, copy, paste to picture - done .. no 'fullsize editor' needed.

  • Can I use indesign without being online

    can I use indesign without being online.

    Creative Cloud aplications are installed on and run from your computer. You must have an internet connection to activate, and CC will "phone home" periodically to verify that your subscription is valid, but otherwise no network connecton is required. If CC is unable to make a connection to verify subscription status you should still have 30 days grace period to work.
    As far as the file being too large, I'm not a Publisher user so I don't know haow it handles images, but the correct method in InDesign would be to Place the images which creates a link to the original of only a few bytes in the file, and it would not be unusual to have a document with hundreds of pages and hundreds of linked photos.

  • Anyone using InDesign to create directories?

    I can not get InDesign to create a directory as I want it set up:
    Sorted by County, Specialty then Name.  I tried data merge but the spacing gets all screwed up. I tried to import an XLM file but I get errors when I try to import it.
    Would someone please give me a little XML file to try?  Just need a test file with three items; County, Specialty and name or anything you may have and I’ll change my InDesign file to accommodate.

    I created a children's picture book using the ipad app, Book Creator. It was fairly easy and I also added interactive sound buttons.

  • Can't use function in creating record group

    Gurus,
    This question is for developers. Is this true one can't use
    function in creating record group. I am using form5.
    thanks,
    ZW

    I figured out the issue... they changed the way Group Calls are limited.
    Here's a full explaination - and a suggestion for a behavior fix: http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows-desktop-client/Please-Fix-Group-Video-Voice-Calling-Limit-Beha...
    Long story short, you can't do a video calling at all if the group has more than 10 people in it total (including you).
    Also, you can't do voice calling in groups with more than 25 people.
    Text chats are limited to 300 people (or so I've been told by Skype employees). I've been in a chat with over 100 participants though so I know it goes that high at least.

  • How can I use forms to create a printable document or an html page?

    This question may be a little confusing, so below is a link to an example of what I want to create using Dreamweaver.
    http://www.howard.edu/technology/info/web/hosting/request/default.htm
    On this webpage, the user is asked to fill in the forms with their info and when they press "view printable form", a html page using the info that was inputted is created for the user to print and sign.
    So, I basically want to create the exact same thing in Dreamweaver - any suggestions? Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
