We converted this book from the client-supplied Indesign documents. There were approximately 50 images in this book, all of which had to be optimised and sized so that they were all proportionate to the text. There were quite a few differing fonts in this ebook also, so they were embedded to ensure consistency throughout. It was great to work with Sarah and the book has a very clean, neat looking layout to it which translated well across to the ebook stage.
