Frequently asked questions
Best practice for converting your PDF file into an eBook would be to first change your PDF format into an EPUB format. Content from EPUB files is reflowable, meaning it will adjust to any screen size or type, making it great for ebooks. It works for simple text-only and for JPEG or XHTML infused files.
Ebooks are not different from your classical format books. The word count will differ largely depending on genre. Novels usually go anywhere between 50,000 and 100,000 thousand words, whereas short stories typically don’t pass the 8000-word benchmark. If you’re writing an ebook for marketing purposes, you should keep it between 2,000 and maybe 5,000 words.
Note: An average ebook page has around 250 and 300 words. So a 50,000 novel would roughly translate into a 166-page book.
The short answer is ‘No.’ Ebooks do not have traditional page numbers. Given that the content adjusts to the device you are using, it would be impossible to assign a page number that could apply to all different size formats.
