Introduction
When you register, we'll send you a more detailed help file.
In the meantime to get you started and to allow you to test whether TitleViewer is of use to you this file will show you how to create an e-book.
Overview
Essentially, you make one of our E-Books by creating a directory on your hard disk, and any number of sub - directories beneath that representing sections of your book. Then, any number of HTML files containing the text and graphic content of your book are copied into those directories. Each file can represent one or more pages of your book. We refer to this as a local web site.
Then our E-Book HTML browser is used to view the results.
Viewing the results
You can open such a web by selecting the "web" button from the toolbar and selecting one of the files in the web.
If you're distributing your web, just drop a copy of Authors' TitleViewer (and a few system files) into the top directory. It automatically senses the folders and files around it and displays it graphically. Readers can instantly read any part of the book at a single click.
So its really as simple as 1-2-3.

steps to creating eyecatching e-texts for distribution |
 |
1 |
Use Windows Explorer to create a directory structure on your drive to represent your "offline web site". Use as many folders and sub folders as you think necessary.
|
2 |
Drop a copy of TitleViewer and 3 system files into the top folder.
The files are :
- TitleViewer.exe : the TitleViewer Executable
- TitleViewer.ini : the application ini file which will contain your startup settings
- llib95ht.dll : a required application extension file
- registered users only - your choice of Sta file, which allows you to control the browser appearance on start up. More on that if you decide to register
|
Add your html files to the directory structure you created earlier. ( You can create your web pages using any html editor, we used our own product, rH TitleMaker, to produce this demonstration site. If you don't have a html editor, don't worry we send you rH TitleMaker when you register your copy of TitleViewer |

More Help
Packaging this web so that others can see it is straightforward too. After you register your copy, we send you a copy of a more comprehensive help guide (in HTML format, so you can browse it easily in TitleViewer) which shows you how you can distribute your TitleViewer webs by floppy, CD-ROM or by internet download.
If you followed this guide, Congratulations!, you've created your first e-book.
