Description
NOTICE: Though the steps to formatting an ebook using Sigil are still valid, you may find some elements have changed or are out-of-date. e.g. SIGIL developers no longer offer all depreciated downloads of their product. Also the location of the Sigil Epub Editor product download has moved [new location clearly posted on their old site]
2016 SIGIL USER GUIDE coming early 2016.
=====================
THE LOST SIGIL EBOOK EDITOR MANUAL is a visual, hands-on instruction manual for Sigil 5.3.
It teaches the features and function of the free, open-source program Sigil and how to create validated ebooks for epub AND Kindle/mobi.
You do not need to understand HTML to use the Sigil program. In fact, all you need is a word processing program, the Sigil program (free) and this manual to guide you through the steps.
But for you more adventurous authors, I have included handy tips and tricks to add more flair to your book layout, plus several handy step-by-step tutorials.
