Does iBooks Author support iPhone?

I don't have an iPad and I would like to know if you can make a iBook for the iPhone with iBooks author. I don't see any way to have a preview with my iPhone 4 S. I find this strange because iPhone have iBook and I really like reading a book when I'm on the go and I find the iPad a bit too bit to carry.

I don't believe this is correct. I can export the book with IBA as a .ibooks file and add the book to iTunes. However, in iTunes, that book then is not available for syncing to an iPhone, only for syncing to an iPad.
At least that's what happens for me.
It is doubtful that an iBook would work on the tiny iPhone screen. Certainly not without endless zooming which, incidentally, doesn't work with iBooks anyway: you can pinch open to zoom into a page but, as soon as you let go, the page snaps back to normal size.

  • Does iBooks Author support hebrew ?

    Can I write hebrew books using the iBooks Author ?
    Can I publish them to the app store ?

    You could try, but iBooks Author has the RTL bugs as Pages, which makes it unsuitable for Arabic/Hebrew for most people.  You could try copy/paste from another app and see what problems you run into...

  • Does iBooks author and iBooks support thai fonts?

    I ,live in Thailand,want to create books by using iBook author but from what i've know iBook only support one font for THAI language, is it true or not.
    Also does iBooks author support modifed thai font from the internet? 
    Last one, can I use .ibooks for limited usage not for public?
    Thank you for your answer

    The iPad only has one Thai font, Thonburi, and you cannot embed other fonts using iBook Author.  Here is some info about using other apps

  • Does the iBooks Author support Right-to-Left languages?

    Hi,
    I wish to know if the iBooks Author support languages which are written from Right to Left, such as Arab, and Hebrew.
    Moreover, can it show those foreign letters?
    Does it look okay, or unorganized?
    And another small thing - can you upload a textbook, written by yourself, to your iPad without having a developer account?

    iBooks Author can certainly display RTL scripts, but it has various bugs which make it unsuitable for composing them for many users.  There is no setting for text direction and cursor operation is broken, making editing extremely difficult.  Copy/paste may work sometimes, but iBooks has been reported to misplace characters and have other problems.

  • IBook from iBook Author to iPhone...?

    I want to make a few of my iBooks available on iPhone. I've made them using iBooks Author and they are clearly formatted for iPad. Does iBook Author output file types that can be read on iPhone? If not, can anyone recommend a method to take iBook content to the iPhone?
    Thanks in advance~
    [email protected]

    You can output PDF or just text for use on iPhone....assuming you're not talking about the store.
    Otherwise, an .ibooks file will only target a compatible iPad, sorry.
    If you car to do the rework, you can repurpose your content to a Pages or InDesign standard epub, which will work on both iPhone and iPad via iBooks. And yes, it's not a straight path....kind of a backwards path, actually
    It may be best to author first in Pages so you have the wider standard epub distribution channel, and then consider doing an iBA release as a follow-on.

  • PNG-8, PNG-24, or does IBooks Author optimize images?

    We have a fairly large reference book that is being converted to IBooks Author. The book contains hundreds of line art drawing that are being colored. Because of the large amount of drawings we are considering using PNG-8 format, but for some reason in the back of my mind I thought IBooks Author used PNG-24 only.
    Does IBooks Author optimize images?
    We are using Photoshop “Save for Web” feature to save the files. Dimensions are 2048 x 1536.
    Here is the file size of 3 PNG-8 files: 42k, 58k, 55k
    Here is the file size of the same 3 PNG-24 files: 71k, 102k, 99k
    The colors and quality seems to stay the same. Can anyone see any “gotchas” before I continue? Hate to add hundreds of PNG-8 files only to need to replace them later.
    Thanks,
    Rhek

    Drilling down into an exported .ibooks file, shows info an example png as follows:
    Color Model: RGB
    Depth: 8
    DPI Height: 72
    DPI Width: 72
    Has Alpha: 1
    Pixel Height: 174

    I put my ibook author file in the trash and then accidentally emptied my trash. Is there a way to recover the file? Does iBooks Author have a backup?

    if you use time machine, you should be able to get it back that way. Although IBA saves changes on an ongoing basis, it doesn't create a back up or supplemental copy elsewhere on your drive.

    Could you please provide the correct name of the app you are talking about (it cannot be iBooks Author, which does not exist for the iPad)?  All Apple apps should display in the language which you have your OS set to.

  • Does the eBooks created by iBooks Author support for iphone now?

    I have been read some blogs discussing that the iPhone could gain new support for ebooks made by iBooks Author. And now, I wanna know whether the prediction is true or not. I can' t find any annoucement from Apple to confirm this point. Does anyone answer my confusion.

    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.

  • I need an email address for iBooks Author support. Does anyone out there have that info?

    I am unable to raise anyone at Apple regarding support for the iBooks Author App. Does anyone know of an email address or telephone number for that support group.Thank you

    Apple does not provide application support via email. You can call the standard Apple technical support lines for assistance, though I don't know how expert the technicians will be in that particular application, and you'll quite probably have to pay for the support call.
    You might try posting your issue/question in the iBooks Author forum here:
    https://discussions.apple.com/community/books/ibooks_author
    I suspect you'll be more likely to get an answer there than you will by calling Apple.
    Regards.

  • Will iBooks author support webgl in widgets?

    It would be great to include interactive 3D games in iBooks Author widgets. But Javascript is going to need some help to accomplish this. Does anyone know if webgl will be supported or if there some other way of rendering 3D graphics in the iBooks widgets.

    Don't be ridiculous Dan-o... Why can't we get a 3D character to describe the book for children? a character that uses Javascript and WebGL shading to draw..?
    iAds does WebGL...
    Safari 5.1 now integrates a WebGL Mode to test...
    Please add support for WebGL APPLE!

  • Does iBooks Author work on Macbook pro?

    Does the iBook Author applications only work on Mac's and not Macbook pro's?  I suspect this is correct, but am hopful that maybe I missed something somewhere.
    Thanks.

  • Why does ibooks author automatically resize all images of a gallery?

    The point here is, I have more than one graphic files (not pictures taken by a camera) to put into one gallery widget of an iBooks Author document. Unfortunately, not all figures have the same height/width aspect ratio. If I put them together in the gallery, some of them have cropped widths others have cropped heights. Impossible to losslessly fit all into the same gallery. If I scale alle figures to the same width, the result is acceptable for the figure with the highest heigth, all other figures are cropped again.
    Well in a first time, I was not that much concerned, but the iBooks Author Quality check refused to publish such eBooks, where some picutes appear cropped in the small view (not in the full-screen view).
    Now, why is the iBA software automatically sizing all images of a gallery w.r.t. the center of an image? It would be of much more help, to leave some white background boarders on images of un-equal height, as long as the width of all images is exactly the same. The crop-pan function would then be useful to individually place a smaller-than-the-rest image in that frame of its larger precedecor image.
    Can this autosize function be turned off? Am I really forced to paste smaller images into a white image of the maximum height/width of the galery's largest image?

    If you have differently shaped (height/width) images that you want to place in one gallery....
    The first image you place will determine the shape (max height and width) of your gallery mask, so choose it wisely.
    Before you add each image to the gallery go to photoshop and:
    1. Size the IMAGE to be at the max height OR width of your gallery mask -- do this if you want at least one dimension (height or width) to fit all the way across or up and down in the gallery mask.
    2. Size the CANVAS to the same height and width of your first image (the size of your gallery mask).
    I hope this makes sense and is helpful. Yes, it's ridiculous, but it's the only way I found to make images of different dimensions fit in a gallery.

  • Does scosche passPORT support iphone 4s?

    I just bought a new truck, and sadly discovered that the iPod interface/adapter does not charge my iPhone 4s while its playing audio.  I've read some mixed reviews online about the scosche passport adapter, but nobody specifically mentioned using it with the 4s.  Anybody know if it's compatible?  Thanks.

    Pretty much any earphone/headphone with a 3.5 mm jack will work on an iPhone. Why would you think they wouldn't?
