Description
Experience Level: Entry
Information for the business: Need a cookbook formatted for Kindle
Industry: Food and Beverage
Design details: I recently published my ebook on amazon. It was originally designed in InDesign which I don't think was a great idea for a Kindle book although I had no idea about this at the time. It's been converted to Kindle but I have already picked up two 1 star reviews on Amazon :( with these comments:
"This book may or may not contain good recipes. It's not possible to read them on my Kindle. The digital file is made up of images not text and the images are poor quality. The size of the image is constrained by the size of the screen - images cannot be expanded to be larger than the screen and consequently the writing is very tiny. I have found that by using the Kindle Cloud Reader on a large screen the text is just large enough to read, but this is not really a practical option for a recipe book.
I understand why this book is free. If I had paid money to receive such a poor quality digital book I would be asking for my money back. I hope that a better quality digital version will be made available shortly, AND provided to all the people who downloaded this one."
"Cannot really tell whether the recipes are any good because the text in the Kindle format is completely unchangeable. Even the browser zoom doesn't make the text any bigger and it appears to be less than 9pt font, so virtually unreadable. Good thing it was a free Kindle book download, otherwise, I would be asking for my money back."
I need to improve the file so people can actually read it and need this done urgently before the book is damaged and no one else buys it. But I am not sure if there is another way to convert this for kindle...so please advise and send me a proposal if you have a solution.
Heres a link to the book on amazon (its free to download) so you can see the issues: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Paleo-Recipes-Help-Weight-Shape-ebook/dp/B01ELZAWWA?ie=UTF8&keywords=paleo%20recipes%20uk&qid=1461763119&ref_=sr_1_3&sr=8-3
Ideas for the visual style: Indesign to Kindle
Where the design will be used: kindle
