Page thickness

Thanks to the life-like thickness of your flipbook, your readers can see their reading progress just by looking at the fore-edge.

Just like the page flip effect, natural shadows in your digital book can bring it closer to life. You can decide how deep you want them to be.

Cover options

A glossy softcover rocks for magazines and brochures, whereas a hardcover gives your ebooks a more realistic, old-fashioned look.
