I have a few books here that are new and I wanted to sell them to other students for cheap. Because when I was looking for money everywhere, even under the couch, I couldn't find it. I ended up paying lots of money for them. I want to know if there is another way and if that information is correct?
Or is there a software I can buy that does it for me? I am thinking of scanning each page and going about it that way. I also want to encrypt it so whomever purchases can't re-sell it. S it even legal? If so where can I sell them? Your thoughts are appreciated.
Thanks!
So I found two articles that read like this,
Here's how I do it.
1. Open a PDF in Fox it PDF Reader. (free)
2. Select all the text.
3. Paste all the text in Ultra Edit. ($59)
4. Use the Reformat Paragraph function to remove the extra line breaks.
5. Spell check.
6. Use macros I created to create a table of contents and HTML.
7. Use [html2mobi.E.X.E] to convert to M.O.B. I format add book cover image.
Yeah, that's not e pub, but I've got a Kindle. Just change step seven to something else."
AND,
"If you're selling a PDF, you're not selling an eBook. You're selling an outmoded file type.
If you want to sell an eBook, reformat your document as an e pub and a mob /AZ file. Sell on Amazon through the Kindle Direct Publishing Program and through Smash-words."
Is there a way to pay royalties to the actual author?
