      I was just wondering how a person goes about configuring a book for e-publishing? My book is actually just images as I did all the lettering by hand so it can't really be rearranged or anything. I'm just wondering if it could be an e-book also? Thanks for any insights.

        @Marsha-Kay-Ottum-Owen All I know about e-books is linked to the Adobe suite, so I am not sure this is relevant for you. Adobe InDesign CC lets you create e-books very easily - even animated ones. What you want is probably a fixed-layout e-pub (it does not change layout with the size of the viewer´s screen, I.e. It is not responsive), which is best for Children´s books. InDesign is my workhorse for any layout work (print or digital). I do not know anything about other ways to do it, but maybe there is information on the platform websites (for example the Kindle website).
