I just created a print book with 220 remastered black and white photos from the early 20th century. It also has a lot of text.
I'd like to bring this to an ebook format, but have read conflicting things about the best approach.
I've heard that the reflowable text of kindle files doesn't work well with lots of photos. Is this true? Is it worth trying?
I know I can just upload a PDF and create a "print replica" version, but that strikes me as a horrible reading experience. I'd be pissed to have to squint at a screen and try to read the text. Do people actually buy these things?
Also, I know Amazon charges by the MB for delivery. If I have all these photos, what should I shoot for in terms of image quality? What are my benchmarks?
Any advice from those with experience with photo-heavy books very welcome. Thanks!
