Why your ebook should be a reflowable EPUB
Turn your manuscript into a reflowable EPUB with a clickable table of contents and clean styles. Readers choose their font size, and your book still looks right.
A PDF is a fixed page; on a phone it shrinks to unreadable. A reflowable EPUB adapts to every screen and to the reader's settings. That is the format ebook stores expect, and the one readers are used to.
Where your EPUB works
Reflowable EPUB 3 is the format that ebook stores and distributors take. You upload the same file to each of them yourself. Every store runs its own checks on upload.

Questions about Reflowable EPUB
Does KDP accept EPUB?
Yes. KDP accepts EPUB for Kindle ebooks and converts it for Kindle devices and apps.
Do I also need a print PDF?
Only for a paperback or hardcover. Print typesetting and EPUB together cost $26.40220 tokens.
Fixed layout for picture books?
This tool makes reflowable EPUBs. Picture books with fixed page layouts need a different format.
Can I sell the EPUB outside Amazon?
Yes. The file is yours. Apple Books, Tolino, Google Play Books, Draft2Digital and other stores accept EPUB 3, and you upload it there yourself.
Can I get just the EPUB, without a print PDF?
Yes. In the tool you choose print PDF, reflowable EPUB or both, each with its own price.
Which file do I upload?
A Word file (.docx). Headings marked as headings help the tool recognise chapters.
