We can handle all elements of a book which is to be converted to a reflowable layout ebook. These may include the table of contents, tables, accented characters, index etc. Mathematical content (MathML/Tex) is converted to searchable vector SVG images and embedded in the eBook.

Fixed Layout

Some books like children's story books, cook books would lose their look and feel if they were set in a reflowable text format. For such books a fixed layout is used. The final eBook would match the print book in this layout.
