What is a digital book?

A digital book is an online publication readers can access on any device, without downloading a file or installing an app. Unlike a static PDF, it can include interactive elements like videos, clickable links, and embedded media, covering everything from ebooks and digital textbooks to booklets and online magazines.

How to make a digital book online

Turn any PDF into an interactive digital book in four steps. Start from a file you already have, build from scratch, or pick a ready-made ebook or booklet template.

Create a digital book
  1. 1. Convert your PDF to a digital book

    Upload your PDF to Flipsnack and it becomes a page-flipping digital book instantly. Or if you prefer to start fresh, open the Design Studio and build your book from a blank canvas or a template.

  2. 2. Customize with interactive elements

    Add videos, links, photo slideshows, audio, and more, to keep readers engaged. Apply your logo, colors, and fonts to keep every book on brand.

  3. 3. Publish and share

    Share your digital book via a direct link, embed it on your website, or send it by email. Choose public sharing for wider reach or password protection for private distribution.

  4. 4. Track engagement

    Measure views, clicks, and time spent with detailed analytics. Use the data to refine your content and build better digital books over time.
