How do I edit words (misspellings) in iBooks Author?

I have been sent a book to edit in IBooks Author, but can't change words or spellings in the document. How do I change words that are spelled incorrectly or grammar that is incorrect?

Have you been sent an .iba file which you are opening with the iBooks Author app?

  • How do I edit words on a pdf document?

    I have revieved an email with a pdf attachment. This attachment is a scan of a letter. How do I edit words in the letter?

    In its current state, those letters are merely an image - there is no text.
    With Acrobat Professional - perhaps Standard, you would utilize Document > OCR Text Recognition
    That option in AA X and XI are probably elsewhere.

  • I have written an ebook that has been created for kindle. How can I export the book into iBooks author?

    I have written an ebook that has been created for kindle. How can I export the book into iBooks Author?
    I have tried converting the book to different files like, mobi, epub, pdf. By using an app on my iphone.
    I still cannot add it to iBooks Author.
    I'm stuck, Please help me!

    Either use copy/paste and then format/style as desired, or take it to Pages or WORD and insert chapters - which may still require resettling.
    If you're looking for a 1:1 port, with all styles and layout intact, you may be dissapointed, tho.

  • How do you add master items in iBook Author?

    Everytime I add a page to my book the same interactive image window appears as if it were a master item. How do you add master items and how do you eliminate it from happening on subsequent new pages?
    Message was edited by: Onnie Clem

    Onnie Clem - There are master layouts. To uncover & use them go to the View menu and select Show Laouts (3rd iten down). They appear in the top portion of the sidebar. Make universal changes here.

  • How to change content for serialized novel. ibook author

    I am writing a serialized interactive novel in ibook author and want to update content (adding and possibly subtracting text) for the readers.   These changes would be triggered either by time since purchasing the book, or by what the reader has read in the book so far.   So after 5 days they would find new content on their book. Or they might get to a certain point in the book and then have to wait a day or so for the next episode to appear.    Or in the case of  an unreliable narrator novel:  If the reader looked back at a chapter the reader had already read they would find it had mysteriously changed.  What would be the best way of doing this?

    While I'm sure an industrious individual could try to edit the templates by hand, there is no promise such code is supported via iBooks 2 on iOS.

  • How to make table of contents in IBooks Author?

    I am having trouble with the Table of Contents in IBooks Author, I have completed successfully all the steps and pages,
    photos and widgets, but have been stuck on the Table of Contents for months.  I've Googled and searched for help,
    but either don't understand or it doesn't apply to my book.  I am trying to publish a Children's Book which really doesn't need
    the Table of Contents, but apparently they won't publish without one. 
    Please advise if you have an answer for this frustrating problem,
    thank you!

    Crafting a chapter-less book is possible, but a minimum of one section is required.
    Remove the chapter label, leave the TOC blank and you'll then have a basic/generic point from which to work with. Use the 'File/Save As Template' menu before modifying further if you want to reuse later, etc.
    Keep in mind that the default navigation means at the very least there will be a series of small dots along the bottom of the screen indicating sections, which when tapped will display thumbnails. If your book isn't doing that (landscape), try another template.

  • Anyone how to figure out how to add footnotes or endnotes in iBooks Author?

    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
    David

    There are all sorts of ways to make an ePub iBook without using iBook Author. You can even write the raw source code files yourself, if you like, using a simple text editor. iBooks Author just makes the whole process somewhat easier, of course.
    As for footnotes, perhaps they belong to more traditional printing than to ebooks, which offer other ways of linking to additional information. Maybe this is why Apple chose not to include them in iBooks, whereas they are in Pages, which is aimed more at an end result in paper. If you include footnotes in a Pages document and then try to export it as an ePub, the footnotes will be removed.

  • How can I add an ePub into iBook author?

    I am trying to insert an ePub file created on the App "My Story" into iBook author, any suggestions?

    Copy/paste
    Open in Pages - use iBA's 'Insert Chapters from Pages' menu.
    Either of those should work, basically. You'll need to check font substitution, etc.

  • How do I edit word document attachments

    HI,
    i have a new iPad for work. I have installed both the free word app and the Polaris office app. I am able to receive word attachments and view them, but it won't allow me to open them for editing in the apps. I hold on the attachment, but the option to open with the app is not there. It will also not allow me to choose to email newly created word documents from the iPad in Word or Polaris Office.
    PLease help.
    Thanks,

    I have installed both the free word app
    The original free word app didn't support editing.  Microsoft recently announce the free app would support limited editing. You need office 365 to do full editing.
