Recently I received this question from the Ask Arvada Question Line:

“How do you make an ebook from your own PC?”

I figured a video was worth a thousand words… so I created the video below to show you how it works step-by-step:

The Steps…

In the video I assumed that you would want to create an ebook that was in PDF format… which I highly recommend. PDF files can be read on any kind of computer, the reader is free and usually already installed on most computers, and it’s a format that most people are used to using.

Here are the steps that I lay out in the video for those who don’t want to actually watch it:

  1. Create your ebook in Microsoft Word.
  2. Print your document to Cute PDF Writer.  This is the program I use and I love it.
  3. Open up Cute PDF and add your links and other enhancements.
  4. Save your changes to the PDF file.
  5. Open you ebook up in Adobe Reader and make sure it looks the way you want it to.
  6. If you want to make changes, go back to Cute PDF and make the changes.
  7. Get your ebook out there!

The whole process is surprisingly quick and easy.

If you have a program that you think is better than Cute PDF, please let me know.  I’m always interested in new and better products that make my life easier!
