I'm confused, I see the forest but can't pick out the tree. And on top of that I can't tell mirrored from actual. I wrote and compiled a regular book and published it last summer. Now before the snow melts I need to make it into an ebook and want to sell it myself via my web site, solo. I typed it in 2007 Word and then into PDF and now available as POD. I don't know HTML , never had the memory to recall unrelated characters... & my first was a 286. When I look around I see Calibre and would rather lean toward Adobe x,y,&z and am having problems if it is end user or developer. If a conversion doesn't work I'd be willing to copy and paste it together in some program that will put it in HTML. There are 200 black and white images... Putting it together the first time wasn't easy. Also, there are no 'chapters', why is this navigation thing so important? There are larger text between books and stories that I could use as 'chapters'... I would think this would be easy if I could get some sense of direction. I've already got Adobe Digital Editions and Sigil on the desk top... What do I need to learn? Or do first? Adobe InDesign? Adobe would be the way to go, no? Because Calibre won't cover as many readers? Isn't that what a lot of the talk is? That it is hard to read the book on all these devices? Maybe I should just ask how do I start going about this? I've watched a number of videos and they just seem to skip the beginning and just jump right in like everyone is on the same page. Or if the program is for readers or authors and lots of names without descriptions. What if I re-type the whole 150,000 words in one continuous line with pictures between would that get it put into a generic version so that all reader can see it properly? I don't want to do that, but just thought that would help convey my confusion.
