I appreciate the author of the course furnishing information about where to find his ebook formatting information. One of the reasons I signed up for this course is to be able to prepare ebooks and know how to make the book look good on the inside. I read a lot, exclusively ebooks. You can tell when a book interior wasn't prepared by a pro.
