## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great for general knowledge
  

*by G***. on Reviewed in the United States on September 6, 2022*

I've used this for three books I've published on Amazon, and found it more useful in the beginning than it is now.  This may be because I have internalized the contents and employ them as I write, or it may be that the tools supplied by Amazon make the publication process easier and more idiot-proof.  Conversely, it may be that it taught me about features buried in Word that I had not discovered despite using it for what has to be 20+ years by now.I would think it would be very useful if one were publishing on other platforms.  I certainly learned things from it, and I still check back occasionally.  When the author revises the book, no doubt they will cover some of the tools that Amazon has added.  But this edition is certainly useful -- that Amazon has introduced new tools since the 2020 edition was written is what prevented me awarding five stars here.

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Print emphasized; eBooks portion disappointing
  

*by M***B on Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2020*

I purchased this book because I was interested in producing an eBook from my MS Word doc, and I was curious about the possibility of producing a print book (print-on-demand). I am disappointed in the book because it focuses on producing print books, and the eBook portion seems like just an also-ran.The reader is expected to read "Part One: Format a Print Book" before "Part Two: Format eBooks". The eBook portion assumes the reader has already prepared the MS Word doc for a print book.Further, much of the eBook content seems to be based on the Smashwords Style Guide. The author refers to the Guide repeatedly, and recommends following its guidelines even for non-Smashwords eBook formats. The emphasis on Smashwords can make the reader wonder why he bought the author's expensive book instead of downloading the Smashwords Style Guide, which is free.A particular issue for me is that my MS Word doc contains footnotes, and the author's "Additional Rules and Recommendations" for eBooks advises..."Do not use superscripts, subscripts, and most symbols...""No footnotes. (Footnotes, endnotes and indexes are possible in ebooks, but the formatting directions are not covered in this book..."I have many eBooks with superscripts and foot/endnotes, so these are certainly doable, but the author provides no help, except to briefly mention footnote information in (surprise!) the Smashwords Style Guide.Beyond this, it seems that a fair bit of the eBook content is references (descriptions and links) for web sites where the reader can get information about steps in preparing eBooks in various formats. I had hoped this book would have provided more information itself.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    This book is the most helpful I've found in a LONG time
  

*by T***R on Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2016*

I've written eight self-published novels but the hard part isn't the writing - it's getting the darned books ready for publication (through CreateSpace).  My greatest concern before buying this book was its 2012 publication date - was I going to get the current stuff I needed?  I'm pleased to say this book was PERFECT.  It covers all the difficult parts of Word for publishing - headers and footers, the quirks of sections, how Smashwords requires so much different stuff than the others - in short, this book was the best help I've found and half the pages are now tabbed and marked so I won't have the same difficulties this summer when book number nine comes out.  Thanks to Jennette Green for a valuable publication.
