E-Book Systems Introduces FlipPublisher

The Authoring Tool for Digital Publications
FlipPublisher Allows Content Owners to Digitally Publish on CD and the Internet

SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 10, 2003--E-Book Systems, the leader in 3D Digital Flip® technology -- introduces FlipPublisher(TM), which creates dynamic 3-D page-turning digital "FlipBooks" with rich media content such as text, audio, video, photographs and music.

FlipPublisher(TM) allows your audience to "turn" pages like they are reading a hard copy of a book, eliminating the need to scroll through documents. Magazines, newsletters, novels, textbooks, catalogs, brochures, portfolios, company manuals, financial reports and more can be created as a "FlipBook" with FlipPublisher(TM). Once a FlipBook is created, it can be electronically delivered via the Web, or formatted onto CD-ROM for offline delivery. The CD-ROM can be viewed on any PC.

FlipPublisher(TM) empowers the owners of content to become their own publishers to create a virtual flipping book that users are accustomed to. Publishing FlipBooks via the Web or CD-ROM saves a lot of paper printing and delivery cost for publishers. "We believe one of the most powerful features of FlipPublisher(TM) is the ability to include page-based advertisements that will not annoy the reader," says Dr. Ho Seng-Beng, President of E-Book Systems. "This is particularly applicable in the case of eMagazines."

FlipPublisher(TM) introduces an intuitive viewing experience, an easy creation process and a self-contained distribution mechanism. The following are some of FlipPublisher(TM) key features:

  • Import text documents via drag and drop.
  • Auto pagination and chaptering.
  • Import HTML documents in individual pages.
  • Re-size text columns and rows with grid and ruler.
  • Add bookmarks with custom text, shapes and colors.
  • Supports multimedia objects such as video, audio, and image on page.
  • Add special effects to images, such as 3D, frame, crop shape.
  • Publish flipbooks onto CDs or on the Internet.

Your flipbook is easily accessible by your audience. CDs that are distributed are totally self-contained and launches automatically on the reader's PC. No installation of software is necessary. Flipbooks posted online can be viewed using a free version of E-Book System's FlipViewer® 2.2, or FlipViewer Lite(TM) 2.2. Readers can even bookmark individual pages, and easily access hyperlinks on the pages by simply clicking on the links.

SRP for FlipPublisher(TM) is $299 and is only available direct at http: http://www.flippublisher.com/. The minimum systems requirements include IBM© PC compatible, Intel Pentium® II 300 MHz or better, 128 MB RAM or more, and Microsoft® Windows 98 or above. FlipBooks use the OpenFlip(TM) XML-based technology. It is denoted by a small index file (.OPF) regardless of how large the overall flipbook size, which means a user who publishes a large FlipBook would still be able to e-mail it with the small index file as attachment.
