Create professional-looking eBooks with Natata eBook Compiler

If you’re a wordsmith looking to trade your rusty ol’ typewriter (or quill, if you’re that old) for an electronic medium, you’ll need a quick way to compile your pages. Since your book will be in a digital format, you can easily include images and audio for added interactivity. Natata eBook Compiler makes it simpler for you to do this, since it can compress multiple file types including JPEG, GIF, HTML, WAV, CSS, and JavaScript. However, if you want to use Flash, PDF, and MS Word files in your eBook, you’ll have to use the paid version.

People who are new to eBook creation can easily use Natata because the program works like a simple wizard. All you have to do is follow the steps indicated and click on a “Next” button. Just make sure that you read the instructions carefully - going through the wizard needs a test trial before you get the hang of it.

The final eBook output is an executable file (.exe), so your readers don’t need to download special software to read it. As for the file limitations of the free version, you can work around it by saving your MS Word files as HTML files instead. If you want to use Flash animation, you can opt to export the file in GIF format. If you want to check out how your final product can look, you can go to the Natata website and download their sample eBooks.

The program requires at least a Microsoft Windows 95 operating system to run.
