Title: Looking for ebook Creating software
Post by: boomer2 on February 19, 2009, 09:11:48 AM
Wasn't sure where to post this?

Hey, I want to publish several new, as well as some old books in an ebook format and need certain software to create such a book.

I would be willing to trade a nice assortment of psilocybian mushroom spore prints for a software program I can use to create an ebook with.

I will also throw in copies of 2 of my out of print books "Wasson''s First Voyage" and "Magic Mushrooms of the Hawaiian Islands," plus one copy of my cd-rom, "Psilocybian Mushroom Cultivation" which has over 300 photographs of cultivated cubes from around the world

Do you already have the material in electronic format? If so, I would suggest Open Office. You can import the material, format, and save to PDF format (including thumbnails, bookmarks, TOCs, etc.). It works well and it is free. It is a full-featured word processor and it's "power" is only limited by the time you spend learning it. If you spend the time to learn templates, named styles, and master documents you can prepare books of any complexity with professional results.

The software can be found here. (//http://www.openoffice.org)

...hell, if you're throwing in a few spore prints, I may be willing to do some of the work for you ;)
