Preview of Children's Picture Book in Kindle E-Reader
/Kindle Create can show a preview what an e-book will look like in a a tablet, smartphone, or Kindle E-Reader. The E-Reader has a grayscale display, so my pictures will be viewed in all of their black and white glory.
The question is, why am I spending time with an e-reader when my goal is to publish the print version first? There are several reasons. The first is that Kindle Create converts the InDesign PDF into a series of pages that are fun to scroll through. I can also see which images can be easily adapted to a future e-book, and which will need more work. This particular image works with both the square print format or the HD e-book format, though the position of the text will have to be tweaked.
