  1. Tips to Take Care of while Choosing Kindle Formatting eBooks have taken over the market like a storm, and there is no denying it. You can now carry over 4000 books on your device at a go. No longer should anyone suffer the burden of extra weight that comes with carrying books around. There are lots of dedicated devices to choose from when it comes to buying an eBook reader. Amazon Kindle devices have retained a whole lot of customer base mostly due to the elegance and quality of the devices. When it comes to the author, though, publishing a book in different formats is a difficult choice. With all the formats available which one is best suited for you? Today, almost all eBooks are published in either Kindle format or ePub format. There are some things though a person should take care of while choosing kindle formatting:

  2. 1. Fixed page layout - Kindle formatting does not allow for reflow ability. Kindle devices are specifically made to handle a fixed page format. On the other hand, if you use ePub formatting, your book can be accessed from virtually any device except kindle. 2. Market - If you opt for kindle formatting, your books will only be able to run on Kindle devices. The rest of the digital market will be oblivious to you. Even though the Amazon market is huge, having access to diverse markets is a better selling option. 3. Editing - It is fairly difficult to edit your book once you have published it. It can only be edited with Adobe acrobat Editor, for which you will have to purchase a subscription. No other option will be available to you. EPub offers much easier access to your books, and you can edit them anywhere for free, there are several open-source software that allows you to do the same.

  3. 4. Security - The best you can have is a password, which can be broken by password recovery software available online today. Kindle formatting suffers from having no DRM security. DRM is one of the most secure ways to give access to users to your books without the risk of piracy. 5. Dynamic experience - In all honesty, Kindle does not provide a dynamic experience. It always has the same mundane layout with hardly any access to media. ePub formatting allows the insertion of audio and images in the books. Moreover, accessibility is much better in ePub formatting.

  4. You must have understood the pros and cons of kindle formatting by now. Still, Kindle devices have their charm when it comes to simplicity. When choosing a formatting option, it is better to know who your audience is and decide accordingly. If you are publishing for Kindle devices only, then Kindle formatting is the way to go, else wise ePub formatting will give you far superior options. Content produced using ePub formatting is easier to access and is more dynamic. The added feature of reflow ability makes ePub a better option, though, with one downfall, they do not run on Amazon Kindle devices.
