not all ebooks are created equal
DON’T RISK A VISUALLY INFERIOR PRODUCT
Pear Creative has been in the book design business for a long time, but starting in 2020, we are now providing ebook conversion as well. The change came when we saw what was happening to the beautiful books we had created when they went through the ebook conversion process. To put it simply—they looked awful. We began to see that ebook conversion companies were not giving authors and publishers a quality product.
Sadly, many conversions strip out all the fonts that you and your designer worked so hard to choose. Custom chosen fonts give your book that visual "snap and personality" that helps communicate your content, and makes your book an enjoyable read. To see all the hard work put into a book simply stripped out is unthinkable.
The fact is: your ebook is a valuable product, and it should fully represent the look and feel of your printed book.
The ebook customer deserves the full experience of your published work. Period.
So, we now offer 3 packages:
- Basic Package | $99 USD
- No added fonts, just the standard font that an ebook reader would provide. This is a simple book conversion, and a good choice for the budget-conscious author, while still making sure your ebook is well designed and attractive. (EPUB, Mobi and PDF)
- Full Font Package | $130 USD
- We make sure all your chapter headings, titles, subheadings etc look the same in your ebook as they do in the printed version. (EPUB, KPF and PDF)
- *Full Color and Font Package | $199.00 USD
- Why go black and white, when you can have a FULL COLOR ebook? Even if your book is printing in black/white, color can be added to the layout (chapter headers, section titles, pull quotes, images/charts etc) so that the ebook is alive with color. Those who view ebooks on tablets, Kindle Fire, computers, and phones will enjoy a bright, engaging, full-color experience. (EPUB, KPF and PDF)
- *note: people reading on black/white Kindle Readers (Kindle, Kindle Touch, Kindle Touch 3G) will still have a black/white reading experience. Buyer needs a color device to enjoy your color ebook)
We can also work with additional book elements like photos/images, charts, call-outs, pull-quotes, sections of boxed text, footnotes, endnotes and more!
(Contact us for details on pricing if your book has any of these elements in addition to text.)
