With iBooks Author, the creation of books has become a very easy task. The app comes with some default templates which can be used to create a book. The default templates contain Latin text and stock photographs which gives one a fair idea of how to include text and images into the template and create an all-new book. The addition of multimedia such as images and videos can be done through drag-and-drop functions. In fact, an entire document can be dropped into iBooks Author and the app will automatically populate the sections with the content. This means that even if you wrote your book in a Word document, you can simply drag and drop it in the app and the app will automatically detect the sections as well as headers.
Addition of widgets to digital books:
Another very cool feature in the iBooks Author is that you can drag and drop different available widgets into your book. For instance, you can drag and drop a presentation that is relevant to a particular portion of the book, in that section. Not only this, apart from the default widgets, you can create your own HTML and JavaScript widgets and make them a part of the book, wherever you like.
Finally, to create your very own glossary of the book your create on iBooks Author, you can click on any word and add it to the glossary. Another click and you can also add a definition to the word. It’s as simple as that. Moreover, as soon as your are done, you hit ‘Preview’ and connect an iPad to the system. The book becomes immediately available for preview on the iPad.
