EBook Distribution FAQ

What is eBook distribution?
If you are considering selling your eBook on retail sites other than Lulu.com, your eBook must include a unique International Standard Book Number (ISBN), comply with our retail partners’ distribution guidelines, and pass both Lulu’s and our retail partners’ quality assurance reviews.
Your eBook will be eligible for distribution if you:
Select Sell this book in the first step of the eBook Publishing Wizard
Apply an ISBN to the project
Create it as or convert it to EPUB format
Comply with all eBook distribution guidelines
How can I get my eBook distributed to other retailers such as the Kindle Bookstore, the Apple iBookstore, the NOOK® bookstore, and the Kobo Bookstore?
When you publish an eBook in EPUB format that includes an ISBN, you will see a pricing and distribution step in the publishing wizard. In this step you will enter your retail price and select retail distribution options. Your projected revenue for each selected retailer will be displayed. Your book will enter the distribution process once you complete the publishing wizard.
Following publication, you can review and edit your price and retail selections from the My Projects  page. Click the Manage distribution button next to the project to view and edit distribution options.
Will my eBook be available for purchase on Amazon.com?
Lulu's eBook distribution options include the Kindle Bookstore on Amazon.com.
One of my distribution options is "Kobo and More," which online retailers are included in this option?
The Kobo and More distribution option includes all online eBook retailers included in the Ingram CoreSource eBook distribution network. This network includes specialty bookstores that offer regional and curated content. Here is a link to a current list of Ingram's online eBook distribution partners. 
How much does it cost to place my eBook in distribution?
There is no charge for submitting your eBook for distribution.
What is an eBook Quality Assurance Review?
When you choose retail distribution for your eBook, it is submitted to our Distribution Team for a Quality Assurance (QA) review. Your eBook will then be reviewed to ensure it meets our retailers’ distribution requirements. If your eBook does not meet these requirements, it will be rejected for distribution and you will be notified via email of the rejection reason. You may then revise your project and resubmit it for an additional QA review.
Important Note: The QA review is a technical review, not a review of your content.
Will I be notified when my book passes Lulu’s eBook Quality Assurance Review?
Yes. When your eBook passes the Lulu QA Review, we will send you an email to alert you that your eBook has been passed to the retail distributors you selected in the publishing wizard or Manage Distribution page.
The eBook’s distribution status will be set to Processed. If you chose to distribute your work to the iBookstore, the Available on the iBookstore badge will also be applied by Lulu when we submit your eBook to Apple for review.
Please Note: The Processed status only indicates that your eBook has been reviewed by Lulu and submitted to the retailer. It must then also pass the retailer’s QA review before it will be available for purchase on the retailer’s site.
You can track your eBook’s progress through the distribution process from the Manage Distribution page. For more information about distribution statuses and action alerts, see How to Use the eBook Manage Distribution Page.
My eBook was rejected for distribution. What do I do now?
If your eBook is rejected because it does not meet eBook distribution requirements, you can revise the project to correct the issues discovered during the QA review and resubmit it for another review.
For more information about why eBooks are rejected for distribution, see Top 10 Reasons Why Your eBook Was Rejected.
Why is it necessary for Lulu and the retailer to review my eBook?
The Lulu Distribution Team verifies that your eBook meets current distribution requirements. Retailers then confirm that your eBook is not in violation of their publishing terms and conditions, which can change at any time and varies between retailers.
How long will it take for my eBook to appear on a retailer’s site?
When you submit your eBook for distribution, it is queued with all other eBooks awaiting review. On average, the Lulu team will review your eBook within a week of submission.
If your eBook passes the Lulu QA review, it will be submitted to the selected retailers for final review. The eBook distribution status will be updated to Processed.
If your book passes the retailer’s review, it will be queued for addition to the retailer’s online catalog and should be available for purchase in 2-4 weeks. Each retailer has their own process for reviewing, approving, and listing eBooks on their sites.
Please Note: All times are estimates and vary depending on demand.
Will I be notified when my eBook is made available on other retail sites?
No. When your book passes the retailer’s review, your eBook will be queued to be included in the retailer’s next site catalog update. The only means of verifying whether a title is listed on a retailer’s website is to search for the title.
Helpful hint: Searching by the eBook’s ISBN, without the dashes, will return a list of all sites on which the eBook is currently offered for sale.
If your eBook remains in the Processed status for more than four weeks, please contact our Support Team. We will attempt to locate your eBook in the process and provide you with additional information on your eBook’s distribution status.
How can my fans purchase my eBook from retail distribution sites?
When your eBook is listed on a retail site, your fans can purchase it directly from that site using their eReader or other device.
I see an “Available on the iBookstore” badge next to my eBook title. Why can’t I find it on the iBookstore?
When your eBook passes the Lulu Quality Assurance review and is sent to Apple, the Available on the iBookstore button is automatically applied to the title. Since Apple does not communicate back to us when your eBook passes their review process and it is added to their catalog, we simply add the tag in preparation for its availability on the iBookstore.
The only way for you to know when it is actually available is to conduct a periodic search.
Helpful Hint: To search for your book on the iBookstore. Type the following URL address into your browser: itunes.apple.com/us/book/isbnxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Replace the xxxxx's with the numbers from your ISBN (without the dashes) and hit enter. If your eBook is available for purchase from the iBookstore, it will display in your browser.
Note: the above URL displays books in the US iBookstore. To see if your eBook is listed in other iBookstores around the world, change the /us/ to the country code of interest (i.e. uk, fr, ca, etc.). Click here to view a list of international iBookstores.
Why is my entire eBook displayed in the iBookstore Preview?
The iBookstore generates a preview using either the first linked section in your eBook table of contents (NCX file) or 5% of the text – whichever is greater. If your eBook table of contents contains only one link, then the entire book will be displayed in the preview. This commonly occurs with short stories, picture books, and short children’s books.
To prevent your entire eBook from displaying in the iBookstore preview, you can either create additional chapters or sections in your eBook or create and upload a preview, in EPUB format, using a selected portion of your eBook. Lulu will submit your preview along with your eBook for use by our retail partners. 
Please Note: Custom previews must be created in EPUB format. Previews submitted in DOC, DOCX, or PDF formats cannot be submitted to retail distribution partners
Do I have to sell my eBook on Lulu.com?
No, you may choose the retailers to which your eBook will be sent. If you do not choose Lulu as a distribution option, your eBook will be automatically set to Private Access, which prevents it from displaying in the Lulu Marketplace.
If your eBook qualifies for distribution (i.e. is in EPUB format and includes an ISBN), you will see the Manage distribution button next to the title on the My Projects page. Click this button to review or edit the retail distribution sites on which you want to sell your work.
Please Note: You may notice that your revenue amounts change based on the retail sites you select to distribute your book. That is because some retailers (Lulu, Apple, and Barnes & Noble) act as sales agents meaning they sell your eBook at the price you set then take a commission based on that price. Other retailers (Amazon, Kobo) operate as resellers. This means they pay a wholesale price to a distributor when your eBook sells. Since these retailers are buying your book from a middleman at a set price, they can resell your eBook at any price they like, including a discounted price. Under the reseller model you will always make the same revenue as displayed in the retail pricing step for each book sold by that retailer, regardless of the sale price.
If I revise my eBook, how long will it take for the revision to be updated on retail sites?
If you choose to revise an eBook already in retail distribution, the entire QA review and distribution process must be repeated. The revised version should replace the previously listed eBook in 3-6 weeks.
If your eBook is still in the Lulu QA review process (Pending status) you can withdraw it (click My Projects > Manage Distribution and click Cancel), make revisions, and resubmit it for review. When you complete your revision, you can resubmit your eBook for review.
If I change the price of my eBook, when will I see the new price on retail sites?
Since a price change does not require a Lulu QA review, the price change request will be queued and sent in the next scheduled data feed for each retailer. Prices on retail sites are updated based on each retailer's schedule and are usually visible in about two weeks.
Note: E-Book price changes are immediately visible in the Lulu.com bookstore.
How do I remove my eBook from retail distribution?
You can remove your eBook from distribution by clicking on the Manage Distribution button next to the title. Deselect each distribution channel from which you wish to remove your eBook and save your changes.
Your eBook will be removed from the retailer’s site as part of the next scheduled site catalog update.
For more information about retail distribution actions, see How to Use the eBook Manage Distribution Page.

  • EBook (EPUB) Publication FAQ

    How much does it cost to publish an eBook?
    If you are a do-it-yourself publisher, there is no cost to use our free tools to convert and/or publish your EPUB and PDF format eBooks. We will even provide you with a copy of our free eBook Creator Guide to assist you through the process. 
    If, however, you would like a little assistance, we offer several affordable eBook publishing packages.
    How do I create an eBook in EPUB format?
    Although this is the most frequently asked question about eBooks, it is also the most difficult one to answer concisely. Have a look at the following video tutorials to get an idea of what you will need to get started.

    If you run into difficulties, don’t hesitate to search our community forums or post a question. One of our volunteer forum experts will be happy to assist you.
    What types of files can I upload to convert to an eBook?
    Before we can convert your manuscript to an eBook in EPUB file format, it must be saved as a properly formatted Microsoft Word (DOC or DOCX), Rich Text Format (RTF), or Open Office (ODT) file.
    For more information about file types compatible for use in our EPUB converter, see Supported File Types.
    Can I use the same file I uploaded for my print book to create my eBook?
    You can certainly create a copy of your print book manuscript file to use as a starting point; however, eBooks are formatted very differently than their print book cousins.
    Your original manuscript was probably created to closely resemble the format of a print book, which requires, margins, a table of contents, headers, footers, page numbers, page breaks, etc. eBooks, on the other hand, are composed of reflowable text, do not have pages as we think of them, and include an electronic table of contents allowing readers to navigate to sections or chapters.
    For more information about formatting your manuscript, see Prepare Your Manuscript for eBook Conversion.
    What is an eBook Marketing Image?
    Think of the eBook Marketing Image as the eBook’s “cover.” It is the image shoppers see when browsing online for eBooks and on their eReader’s “bookshelf” when they purchase and download your work.
    When creating and editing your Marketing Image, you should design the image to capture a shopper’s attention. The art and text should be clear, crisp, and easily read when viewed as a thumbnail.
    The Marketing Image consists only of the front cover art, which should include the book title and author name. Unlike print books, there is no back cover or dust jacket flaps on an eBook cover that can be used to provide author information or a synopsis of your work. Therefore the Marketing Image could be the first, and last, impression a shopper has of your work.
    The Marketing Image must be created to the following specifications:
    Dimensions: at least 612 x 792 pixels (8.5” x 11” or 21.59 cm x 27.94 cm)
    Resolution: 72dpi or higher to provide a clear image when viewed in multiple sizes
    Do I need an ISBN for my eBook?
    You do not need an International Standard Book Number (ISBN) if you only want to sell your eBook in the Lulu Marketplace.
    You will need an ISBN if you want to sell your eBook on sites other than the Lulu Marketplace, such as the Kindle Store, the Apple iBookstore, the Kobo Store, and the Barnes & Noble NOOK® Bookstore.
    Please Note: All eBooks published with an ISBN and set to a status of Private or General Access qualify for retail distribution. For more information about this process, see eBook Distribution FAQ.
    Can I use the same ISBN for my eBook as I used for my print book?
    No. The ISBN identifies the title, author, publisher, and format of a book. Therefore, a different ISBN is required for each format (hardcover, paperback, eBook, etc.).
    How much should I charge for my eBook?
    Only you know the worth of your work.
    You can get an idea of a competitive price range by studying your intended market. How much are authors in your genre or area of expertise charging for their work? Do you have the same name recognition in your field? Are you just getting started as a writer and want to get your work into as many hands as possible? Is a print version of your book also available for purchase and if so, do you want to offer a discount on the eBook version?
    Rather than answering your question with even more questions, here are few points to consider when pricing your eBook:
    Lulu Marketplace
    You can offer your eBook as a free download or sell it for any price greater than or equal to $0.99.
    Important Note: The Lulu creator revenue split is calculated on income above $0.99. For example, if you charge $2.99 for your eBook, your income for each eBook sold in the Lulu Marketplace will be $1.80, which is 90% of $2.00. For the mathematically inclined: Lulu Marketplace eBook Creator Revenue = .90(price – $0.99)
    iBookstore or Barnes & Noble NOOK® Bookstore:
    Retail channels also have rules governing acceptable minimum and maximum list prices. Each channel may adjust your price to comply with their pricing policies. Use this eBook Retailer Price & Revenue Calculator to see what your eBook will sell for on these retailers' sites and estimate the revenue you will earn from each sale.
    Amazon Kindle and Kobo Bookstores
    Some retailers operate as resellers. This means they pay the wholesale price to a distributor when your eBook sells. Since these retailers are buying your book from a middleman at a set price, they can resell your eBook at any price they like, including a discounted price. Under the reseller model you will always make the same revenue as displayed in the retail pricing step for each book sold by that retailer, regardless of the sale price.
    Once your eBook is published, you can view and edit your eBook's retail pricing and distribution options from the My Projects > Manage button.
    IMPORTANT NOTES: When you select Kindle and/or Kobo distribution, Barnes & Noble converts to the reseller revenue model. At this time Amazon Kindle and Kobo distribution are not available to authors residing in Australia.
    Why can’t I sell my PDF eBook on sites other than Lulu.com?
    While PDFs are simple to create and great for reading on a large monitor or laptop screen, they are usually created as fixed text documents (i.e. the reader cannot choose the font or font size). As such, PDFs are not easily read on smaller screens such as those found on eReader devices.
    Due to this limitation, our retail partners prefer eBooks in EPUB file format. These types of eBooks allow text to be optimized for all displays and reading on both large screens and small devices such as smartphones and eReaders.

    Check this thread on how to create epub from ID.
    Also, above right is a field that says "search forums". Type in 'epub' and you'll see a ton of threads.

  • How can I send/share a proof of a publication with someone else?

    Working with iBooks Author, I merely wish to share a test publication internally within my company as a proof. Some of them are remote (not on site). All have iPads.
    The publication is NOT ready for publication, it is in its most preliminary stage. How can I send them a copy of the publication so I can get their feedback? Either I am missing something simple, or else it's not very obvious how this is supposed to be done.

    You have choices - use the Share menu, then save as an .iBooks file where you can find it...email or place on a server for them to download. They then drop into their iTunes and sync.
    You can also save as a PDF and send that around however works easiest in your example.

  • Ibooks 2 and iBooks Author!

    Hi guys!!
    I have some questions about the iBooks 2 Store and the iBooks Author, please help me further with them.
    1. Can anyone post self-made books for sale or for free download in iBooks 2 Store? (For example, students at a school that has made books on a topic, they learned about?)
    2. Is Apple strict with photos and other material taken from the internet, google or books etc? (Must every materials be selv produced?)
    3. How long does it take to get a book published in iBooks 2, so other students and teachers can download the same book?
    4. Does someone have a guide on how to publish the book in iBooks 2 Store?
    Thank you in advance!

    1.) See iBooks Author: Publishing and distribution FAQ - Support- but, yes, anyone...once they have completed the required agreements and been accepted into the program. There are separate programs for 'paid' and 'free'. You might want to utilize the method of putting free books on your own server and not going thru the store.at all, if the audience is limited to other students in your school, as an example.
    2.) Of course You are expected to be able to show proof-of-right-to-use should Apple ask.
    3.) If you go through the store it can from a few to several days. 'Text' books for edu can take longer.
    4.) When you sign up, you are able to download guides for iTunes Producer, which is the tool used to submit books.
    Good luck

  • Convedrt existing epub for iBooks Author

    I have an existing book in both .epub and .prc formats, successfuly being used in other channels (including Kindle) by lots of readers and purchasers.  No need for me to recreate this from scratch, or import bits and pieces to re-assemble it.  (I also have a PDF version.)
    I'd like to create an iBooks version.  iBooks Author won't let me import the .epub or .prc file. 
    Do I need to convert the .epub file I have, or is it iBooks ready as-is?   If I need to convert/change/alter it, where can I find detailed steps for how to do this?
    Note: lots of advice on getting things INTO the .epub format, which isn't what I need.
    Thanks, -R

    Can you open in Pages? iBooks Author, as you've found, won't open a standard epub. If you can get it open in Pages or Indesign, then perhaps you can insert Pages chapters or copy/paste from it or ID.
    The file must be .ibooks, which is a hybrid epub format from Apple, when distributing/publishing via iBA.
    You might just want to not bother with iBooks Author and go straight to signing up for the store, then use iTunes Producer to upload a standard epub. You'll have to work thru the process to see how close you are for that process.
    As well, check this link for info on aggregators that may be willing to do the work for you:

  • Format issue causing iBook navigation problems

    Hello!
    I created an iBook for a client, but some of the default functions of an iBook aren’t working when it’s previewed on iPad. My question is: since the file format seems to be the issue, what can be done to alleviate it?
    Problems
    When previewing the iBook on the iPad...
    Framing features such as navigation bar, book info, bookmark tool, etc. are missing
    The pages lack animated page turns
    Right and left page edge riffles are missing
    When the iPad is turned vertically…
    Pages scroll top to bottom instead of left to right as they should
    All images disappear
    Basically, the iBooks works mostly well in landscape mode but not so much in portrait mode. The client checked other iBooks to compare and the iBook I created is the only one with problems with the interface functions.
    Steps Taken To Save & Preview File
    Saved the iBook file as an IBA file. I also Exported it as an iBooks file.
    Sent IBA and iBooks files to the client to preview on his iPad (I don’t have one so I can’t preview it myself).
    The client opened the IBA file using iBooks Author then clicked the “Preview” button.
    The IBA file cross-loads to the iPad and the problems can be seen.
    The client also attempted to load the IBA and iBooks files on the Book Proofer application (this application does accept IBA and iBooks files), but that didn't work either. The client told me that are some file format issues unrelated to content, leading me to believe that it's a format issue.
    Technical Specifications
    iBook Author version I used to create iBook
    1.1 (the latest)
    iBooks version client used to preview iBook
    iBooks version 2.1.1 (April 16, 2012 release)
    iPad version the iBook is being previewed on
    1st Generation 64GB iPad
    File being used to preview on iPad
    The IBA and iBooks files for the iBook
    Could it be file format incompatibilities? Has anyone had this issue before? I hope the information I provided is useful. Any insight about these issues is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Catrina

    Again, sorry, a 'Shared' .ibooks file has the same format as what users download from the store.
    You don't need to be in the store to circulate that file. 'private' as defined depends on you. Email that file if possible and/or put it on your own server/dropbox and share the link to trusted individuals.
    If you're sending the .iba file to someone that then uses it in iBA, they need to use the 'Shared' menu to generate an .ibooks file, then drop that into iTunes and sync to their device.

  • HT5071 How to download paid iBook created using iBook Author

    Because you can read magazines on it.
    when in fact there are several magazines that you can't download on the Nook App.  to buy the subscribpion on Ipad is much more expensive.
    I didn't see in the ad where it was stated you can read every magazine on earth.
    On the Nook App on my Ipad2, I get an error message saying they can't be dowloaded.
    So it's an error, which simply means it is not working correctly.
    This is a big difference from not being allowed to download them.
    You should review the Nook app FAQ here -> http://www.barnesandnoble.com/ebooks/help-faqs.asp#NOOKapp
    and contact B&N Nook support about the error.
