Is it possible to export an epub from AI-CS6?

I'm creating a children's picture book in ai6. It's fairly simple & text is on it's own layer. I'd love to skip the need to go to InDesign. Can this be done? Many thanks for answers.

Skill Rooster, I create simple picture books in AI with text on it's own layer and Artboards for pages. My request makes perfect sense. If I found a way to export from AI - as I have all the content completed there - I could save much time by skipping a trip to ID, redoing what I have already spent much time doing. It's great to export my book straight from AI as a pdf, it would be REALLY great if I could export it as an ePub too. I'm not sure what about my request "makes no sense." I hope I've cleared things up for you.

Problem with Page Splits in exporting to ePub from ID CS6 v8

Hi,
I have been working on several booklets for a client and after desiging the print version, we've been creating epub versions to be offered from their website. I've had the same issue arise twice now, with two different files.
The ID documents are created with Word docs that have some left over paragraph styling, which doesn't show in the print version, but require finding and fixing during epub exports. I have started out exporting the files to epub just fine, using the Paragraph Style that I had chosen for the Chapter Titles as the page break choice in the Advanced export tab in the Split Document dropdown list. It's worked multiple times, then suddenly reverts to Do Not Split, and the Paragraph Style for the Chapter Titles has dissappeard from the drop down list. The first time this occurred, I tried duplicating, renaming and changing the Paragraph Style used, but that new style didn't appear in the dropdown list either. For that file, I finally gave up, reverted to working with an older epub I luckily had, and hand fixed all the issues in the HTML files. Not fun.
However, it's a month later, and this same glitch has occurred in another file. Has anyone experienced this problem, and is there a fix for it? Would really appreciate some help with this one.

Try restoring your InDesign preferences and see if that helps. Here's how:

I exported my .epub from Indesign CS6 but it crashes my ibooks every time.

Hi,
I have a book that I'm publishing that I'm trying to test on my iphone 5/ipad. I have done this last year with another book without any problems. This new book has a short film embedded, so is that making a difference for the problem I'm having? I have placed different files formats into indesign and it takes it fine. But the epub version kinda freaks out when it's read. Suggestions? The best video format for Indesign? Cheers.

Moved to InDesign forum.
If you're going to read an epub on iBooks I would suggest MP4 with h.264 encoding.

Export to ePub from InDesign

I read at http://www.adobe.com/products/indesign/epub/howto/ that it is possible to export to ePub format from InDesign CS4. Is it also possible to export to ePub format from InDesign 2.0? I have a pdf and a Word document that I want to export to ePub format. But I can't get either one of them to open in InDesign. Would this problem be solved if I upgraded to InDesign CS4? Is there another way to make my PDF or Word document into an ePub by using InDesign 2.0 without upgrading?
Thank you.

Liz Castro’s Kindle book is not available in my region; it’s blocked by Amazon.
As for InDesign 2.0, it generally works for what I need, and when it doesn’t do something that I need, I am told that InDesign CS5 doesn’t do it either. So for the time being, I see no compelling reason to spend the $700 on the upgrade.
By the way, I am also told by a colleague who knows InDesign well that while a Word document cannot be opened in InDesign 2.0, it can be “imported” by following the following steps:
-          Create a new InDesign (.indd) file that corresponds to the number of pages, page size, and page margins of the Word document.
-          Place the Word document on the page. This creates a textbox with the contents of the document in it.
-          You may want to adjust the size of the text box to suit the margins.
-          Go to the bottom right corner of the highlighted textbox and click on the plus signal.
-          Place your mouse on the next page of the InDesign (.indd) file and click. This creates another textbox with the continuation of the text from the previous page.
-          Do this consecutively on the rest of the pages and all of the text from the Word document will be imported.
-          Sometimes, the formatting in the .indd file does not exactly match that of the .doc file, particularly for page breaks, tables of contents, indexes, and other front and back matter.
She says that some publishers use this technique, but it is more common to “link” an InDesign file to a text document that contains the text that is to be published. In this way, new editions of a book can easily be generated by simply updating the InDesign file to the source file when the text in the source file has changed.
On another note, if anyone can suggest a good program that can easily convert Word documents or PDFs to ePub files, I’d greatly appreciate the recommendation. I have read about Stanza Desktop and Calibre, both of which can supposedly convert both Word and pdf files to ePub format. There are others well, such as Web-Books.com, which can also supposedly convert .doc files into ePubs. The web site http://selfpublishingadventure.com/converting-word-files-to-epub-files/ recommends eCub and ePubGen, the ePub converter from Google, but the former doesn’t handle Word documents and the author of that web page said that ePubGen inserted arbitrary page breaks.
I’d like a program that can convert Word or pdf files while preserving as much as the formatting (particularly headings, styles, fonts, page breaks, page numbering, and embedded images) as possible without requiring a lot of manual revision. Suggestions/recommendations are welcome.
Regards,
JMT

I am new to EPUB fomat and I am facing a lot of difficulties in exporting my work from InDesign CS6

Hi..I am new to EPUB fomat and I am facing a lot of difficulties in exporting my work from InDesign CS6. The problem is that I have got a financial report of about 100pages to export as EPUB, with lots of graphs etc..and when I export it, to EPUB 2.0, the following happens:
1. The image quality is quite low (even if the original images are of high quality, and during export, i put the image to max quality)
2. The graphs do not appear where they should be! All the imags in fact appear after the long paragraphs of text..meaning everything appear quite messy and in an unordered manner.
I have read that images should be anchored, and doing so, the result is quite better, but still, some images appear at the end of the text!!d
That is, the end result, in terms of pagination and graphics, is no way like it should have been, compared to the indesign file (page 5 is displayed after page 10, image on page 4 appears on page 9 etc..)
PLEASE HELP..
P.S :
I am using Adobe digital edition to view my EPUB..I have also tried CALIBRE and SIGIL!! But I am not too sharp in eiting CSS codes etc...

Hi Akshay,
If you want your images to appear standalone with no other page item on the page, then you can insert Page break on an image.
This is how you can specify a page break:
1. Select the image
2. Goto Object->Object Export Options
3. Select EPUB and HTML tab
4. Select Custom Layout check box and then check Insert Page break. You can select from the option in the dropdown-Before Image, After Image, Before and After Image as per your requirement.
Regarding your question about images:
You export your graphs as JPEG but are those JPEGs of good resolution? If they are, then InDesign is doing something wrong during export but if the JPEGs are not of good quality then it is not an export issue. Please provide some more details here.

Pooja

Is it possible to export a Book from Aperture 3 to iPhoto?

I shot a wedding for a friend and made a layout of a book on Aperture 3.
Printed a few books which I thought were beautiful.
I was wondering if it would be possible to export this book from Aperture (with the layout and photos intact) as a file (editable or read-only), so my friend can import and open it using iPhoto and order more copies of the book through Apple when she pleases.
Tried Google and couldn't find an answer. Thank you for taking the time.

How about importing from iPhoto into Aperture 3?
I have made a photobook in iPhoto and then bought Aperture 3, but I can't find it possible to export the book in a format that I can open in Aperture. Also, when I export the book in size Large or above, iPhoto crashes.

Is it possible to export brush presets from Lightroom 4?

Hello all,
Is it possible to export brush presets from Lightroom 4? I created custom brush presets on my laptop and I would like to export them and import them onto my desktop if at all possible. Did a bit of research online and could only find this link which only applies to 'Presets' in general, http://help.adobe.com/en_US/lightroom/using/WS2A36C507-E076-4b14-AAC3-87852595D175.html. Please let me know if this is possible or not as this would be a great time saver.
Thank you!
-photorobot2010

Brush Presets are stored in the "Local Adjustment Presets" sub-folder within the Lightroom settings folder structure. The location of the latter varies by Operating System, or if you have "Store Presets with Catalog" checked in your Lightroom Preferences (Presets Tab)....easiest way to locate them is go to that Presets Tab on the Preferences dialog and click on "Show Lightroom Presets Folder"....that will open a Finder/Explorter window with the Lightroom folder showing. Open that folder, find the Local Adjustment Presets sub-folder and copy the brush preset .lrtemplate files to your desktop. Repeat the process on the desktop to locate the Local Adjustment Presets sub-folder, then simply copy the brush presets into it. They should then show up in Lightroom on the desktop (you may need to restart Lightroom first).

Is it possible to export a histogram from labview to excel

Hi achfire,
The LabVIEW Report Generation Toolkit allows you to create different graphs in Microsoft Excel, including Bar Graphs. Check out the Report Generation Toolkit section of the White Paper below for more information. I've also linked to a section of the Report Generation Toolkit Help document which gives more details on the different types of graphs you can export.

Is it possible to export a file from Organizer with the list of all the images in an album?

Is it possible to export a file from Organizer with a list of all the images in a certain album? In filling one of my albums I did not save my edited images to the same file... they are spread out a bit.... Now I want them to make a book with them (outside of Elements).

As far as I know, Elements does not have the ability to create lists.
The solution to your problem of making a book outside of Elements is to place all the desired photos in an Album and then select File->Export->As New Files which gives you the ability to make a copy of every photo in the album in a new folder, from which you would create your photobook.

Incorrect images from .indb file export to ePub in Indesign CS6

I am having problems exporting images to ePub and get a different result from the same file depending on whether I export directly from the .indd file or from the .indb file.
When I export to ePub from the individual chapter (.indd) file, everything is fine and the images appear in the correct locations where they have been anchored.
When I export via the book (.indb) file, images are being replaced with the incorrect file in the resulting ePub.
Looking at the HTML, it seems not all images are being exported from the .indb file and when the image is missing, Indesign is substituting the next available image from the alphabetical list in the images folder so I'm getting incorrect images peppered throughout the book.
Any idea where I've gone wrong and how to fix it? I've produced several ePubs with images and never come across this before.
More details on how I've set up the files and any other info I think might be relevant below if needed.
- I'm using Indesign CS6 (8.0.1)
- I'm producing an 11 chapter book.
- Each chapter is a separate .indd file for ease of editing.
- These 11 files have been added to an .indb file for export to ePub.
- Images are all anchored to their captions within the text.
- On Export to ePub settings for images I have selected to insert a page break before the image and that settings apply to anchopred objects.
Nothing else is selected (I don't want to preserve appearance from layout.)
- I'm using the Articles panel feature for order of content.
- In the original file supplied, the images were placed as .tiff images. I saved them to jpeg and relinked them using the "relink to folder" and "match same file but this extension" options.
- No links are flagged as missing.
Any help much appreciated.

The solution points to how, it appears, the book panel export is functioning: each file exports a set of tags referenced to itself; file01 adds a "1" to its tags, and so forth. What I was able to do was use a file referencing all of the tags in the style suite in two ways:
first, I exported to an epub the single file, creating a fairly clean CSS, which I then extracted and renamed;
then, making certain that file was the "source" file in the book panel, I mapped for export all of the tags, being careful to be certain each tag/class combo was same as in renamed clean CSS;
I synchronized the whole shebang;
I exported to epub, adding my clean CSS as an external style sheet, selecting only "include embeddable fonts".
Bingo!

Is it possible to save or export an e-book chapter from Adobe Digital Editions? Is it possible to export or save from Adobe Digital Editions to an Adobe pdf?

Is it possible to save or export an e-book chapter from Adobe Digital Editions? Is it possible to export or save from Adobe Digital Editions to an Adobe pdf?

I hope you won't see this as rude, but what you are missing is the obvious point that Adobe are in business to make money. So they put as little in Adobe Reader as they can, so people are motivated to buy stuff. Every development intended for Reader has severe limitations on feasibility and techniques for this reason; it's a huge (but very common) mistake to just develop for Acrobat and assume Reader will follow.

I would like to know the list of possible output (export) file codec from FCP X. For example, can I export in F4V or FLV format?

I would like to know the list of possible output (export) file codec from FCP X. For example, can I export in FLV format? Where do I find the list, which gives me all the details about it? Or is there only one output codec? Thanks

That's an excellent analogy. While FCP cannot export FLV. It is possible to do a very simple substitution. If you export a QuickTime movie using the .mov suffix with the H.264 codec, you can change it to FLV simply by changing the suffix to .flv. This is an acceptable format for Flash movies on most web sites, if that's where you're trying to go.

Exporting an ePub from pages on a retina MacBook Pro the size is 10x that of the same export on a MacBook Air. Why?

I am exporting an ePub from a 57.6 MB pages file on my retina MacBook pro and the exported epub is 982.9 MB in size. Exporting the exact same file from Pages on my MacBook Air give me a 97.8 MB ePub file.
Both machines run OSX 10.8.4 and Pages 4.3. And the Pages file resides in my Dropbox.
What is going on here?

Also ask in the forum for Pages perhaps:

Having trouble exporting to pdf from InDesign CS6

When I attempt to export to pdf from InDesign CS6, the application crashes. Apparently there is some phantom plug-in issue.
I need to get this resolved asap.
Thank you,

Have a look at this generic document to help you troubleshoot: http://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/kb/troubleshoot-printing-pdf-export-indesign.html
Could you also provide details about what you've tried, and what errors you encountered? Is this problem limited to a particular document, or all documents?
