Exporting and publishing
Last updated 6/6/2015
Choose content and order - Use the Articles panel to choose the content to export and order in which it should
appear. See
Articles (CS5.5). You can also order content based on page layout or the XML structure.
Export to EPUB
You can export a document or book as a reflowable eBook in EPUB format that is compatible with eBook reader
software.
1 Do one of the following:
Open the document and choose File > Export.
Open a book and from the Book panel menu, choose Export Book to EPUB.
2 Specify a filename and location.
3 From the Save as Type list choose EPUB, and then click Save.
4 In the EPUB Export Options dialog box, specify the desired options in the General, Image, and Advanced areas.
InDesign creates a single .epub file containing the XHTML-based content. If specified, the exported file may include a
cover image. The cover image is created from an image, or created by rasterizing the first page in the specified
document (or the style source document if a book was selected). The thumbnail is used to depict the book in the EPUB
readers or the Digital Editions Reader library view. To view the file, you need an EPUB reader. You can also use the
Adobe Digital Editions software, which you can download free from the Adobe website.
The .epub file is essentially a .zip file. To view and edit the contents of an EPUB file, change the extension from .epub
to .zip, and then extract the contents. This is especially useful for editing the CSS file.
Note: InDesign objects such as text frames and objects that contain placed images are always exported when you choose
the Based on Page Layout ordering option. Empty objects are not exported unless you have applied a setting to the InDesign
object via the Object Export Options to make it export as a JPEG, GIF, or PNG.
