Re: Books in Browsers Conference at Internet Archive

Bowerbird,

Not exactly a new topic, but it looks like they will be talking about
Booktype:

http://www.sourcefabric.org/en/booktype

I've actually used an older version of this software to publish three 1/2
books, both as e-books and as printed books.  The half a book results from
the need for high definition images for photos in printed books, which is
not supported.  For screen grabs in technical books low resolution images
are OK, but this book had photos of people which needed to be 300-600 DPI
so I ended up re-doing the book in Open Office.

The book E-Book Enlightenment was done this way.
