Issues about Google Drive

When you upload documents to Google Drive, it will be converted to Google Docs editor format automatically. When CBB downloads those files from Google Drive via API, it may not return original files and CBB may get the empty files. It causes unexpected result.

You are recommended to disable conversion when upload, especially PDF files. You can refer to https://support.google.com/drive/answer/2424101?hl=en to change upload settings.

Write Once, Four Formats (Version 2.9 Highlights)

Do you have audio recording, song, music or read aloud on each page? Do you want to just generate audio or video format for your book?

For any books created on version 2.9, you can export your book into 4 formats: EPUB, PDF, Audio, and Video.

Convert Book Into Audio

Now you can get your audio format for your book! You just add your audio to each page, and then CBB will merge all of them into one audio file.

• You can skip page if that page contains no audio
• You can choose either audio recording, song, music, or read aloud element
• Only the first audio file will be selected
• You can include draft or glossary if necessary

Convert Book Into Video

Now you can get your video format for your book! You just add your audio to each page, and then CBB will generate video that each page is synchronized with the corresponding audio.

• Fixed Layout Book is required
• You can skip page if that page contains no audio
• You can choose either audio recording, song, music, or read aloud element
• Only the first audio file will be selected
• You can include draft or glossary if necessary
• You can choose transition between switching pages
