2 - How to create a PDF?

You can try to create a PDF automatically from your PNG/JPG, but the final result may be poor in quality, and disappointing for both you and your readers. Here is a tutorial for Photoshop that explains how to export each sheet in PDF and how to assemble them.

Once your image is exported in PDF format, the amount of pixel will be of little importance : it is its size in centimeters that will matter. It is therefore very important that your pages ALL have the same size in centimeters . Our tutorial and PDFs are all examples made from *Manga size: 125x176 mm = B6*

eBooks are not meant to be printed but read on a digital devices such as Tablets (Ipad, Samsung-Sony-... Android, etc), eBook readers or even a computer. So it is pointless to add print margins, and unnecessary to put high definition pictures , it would only slow down the reading of your PDF (by "slowing down" the tablet we mean that instead of turning in 0.5s instead, it will take 1.5s... which is a making a huge difference in terms of comfort, trust us ^^)

2.1 - Perfect PDF with Photoshop

following standard actions to do when you exported your page pdf. (Hint: save these actions in a Script or Action in Photoshop)

  • 1: Open the PSD of the board to export
  • 2: If there are layers, do Layer »Flatten Image .
