What Do I get with a free Doc Book Maker account?
Give Doc Book Maker a try and test submitting your EPUB3 eBook to self-publishing platforms before committing to an affordable paid plan.

Why Should You Use Doc Book Maker to Convert Your Google Doc to EPUB?
While Google Docs allows you to download your document as an EPUB, the generated file often falls short of meeting the strict EPUB3 standards required by popular self-publishing platforms like KOBO or Draft2Digital.
Doc Book Maker goes beyond a simple conversion by optimizing your EPUB to ensure full compliance with EPUB3 specifications. Our tool guarantees seamless compatibility across all devices, smooth navigation, and flawless integration of footnotes—providing your readers with the best possible reading experience.
Currently, Doc Book Maker is the only app that offers this advanced level of conversion, making it the ideal solution for authors and publishers.
What types of images can I use in my Google Doc?
In most cases, you don't need to worry about image formats when inserting them into Google Docs, as Google has its own guidelines. However, if your book includes a lot of images, we recommend keeping them lightweight to ensure smooth uploading and conversion. Doc Book Maker will automatically optimize your images for compatibility across most e-reader devices, typically converting them to JPG format and resizing them to around 127KB for the best performance.
Can I Create an EPUB3 eBook with Right-to-Left Text Direction?
Yes! Doc Book Maker fully supports both Left-to-Right (LTR) and Right-to-Left (RTL) text directions. This allows you to seamlessly create and publish content in languages such as Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, and more that require RTL formatting. If your book is entirely in an RTL language, Doc Book Maker ensures that your text is displayed correctly and beautifully on all devices.
