EPUB 3 eBook Formatting

EPUB format has already become an industry standard and inclusion of the new release EPUB 3 in the production process is the next logical step. Moving forward with the changing technology also ensures that one is ahead of competition.

There are several major changes in the EPUB 3 standard compared to current EPUB 2.01 eBooks, viz -
• Support for video and audio,including HTML5 audio and video tags.
• Audio can be synchronized with text.
• Support for JavaScript, which can be used for interactivity and enhanced formatting
• Better support for fonts, styling etc.
• Improved standards for handling metadata.
• EPUB 3 is based on the XHTML5 and CSS3, the latest versions of XHTML and CSS.
• Accessibility features are significantly improved.
• Support for global language is included.
