Easy web interface.

Pressbooks is simple online book writing software — for publishers, authors and editors. It's the best way to make a book. Pressbooks gives you complete control over workflow and updates. You can import from other formats such as a Word document or your blog. Or, you and any contributors can collaborate directly in Pressbooks. You just set-up the information about your book, add or import your content, and export. Need to update the content in your book? No problem. Typo? Fix it and re-export. Forgot to add the Dedication? Add it and export again.

As a technologically challenged individual who is constantly trying to keep up, I found Pressbooks so easy to use, that the process of creating my own ebook was actually was fun and exciting. In time I grew to care as much about 'Zora Folley' than my other published works. I believe you will, too.

I can't thank Pressbooks enough for the amazing service provided to indie authors! I followed the easy instructions and created a personalized, standout novel in just a few clicks! Now, I have full control over every aspect of creating a book, and I couldn’t be happier. Thanks, Pressbooks.

We've used pretty well every tool available for creating ebooks and Pressbooks is the fastest and easiest. Most of all, the ebooks we export are beautiful and work perfectly on every device we've tested.
