Advanced CSS

The look and layout of an eBook can be controlled via CSS styles. eBookBinder offers by default a predefined set of CSS styles that are practical for many eBook readers. If there are additional requirements for the look and layout of the eBook to be created, the CSS styles can be edited freely.



Editor

The editor displays the current CSS styles used for the project. When creating a new project, the default CSS style is loaded automatically, which can be changed as desired.

CSS Popup Button

The CSS Popup button provides a variety of convenience features for importing, exporting, saving, and saving your own CSS styles.

Reset to Default CSS

This function will reset any changes made and the default CSS style will be loaded into the editor.

Saving the current CSS

The current CSS style can be saved to reuse it in other eBook projects, for example, without having to edit the individual styles again. See "Loading CSS style" below for an explanation of how to load saved styles.

Exporting the Current CSS

The current style can be saved in a CSS file to share it with others or transfer it to other computers.

Remove Current CSS

This option removes all content from the editor.

Import CSS file

With the option Import CSS file, an existing CSS file can be imported into eBookBinder. The CSS style of this file can then be loaded into any eBook project. See "Loading CSS Style" below to learn how to ioad imported styles.

Loading CSS Style

Below the CSS pop-up features the list of already saved and imported CSS styles is being displayed. By clicking the respective style the style can be loaded into the editor.

Preview

The preview can be opened via the "eye"-button. All chapters of the current eBook project can be viewed via this preview with active CSS style and HTML header.

The chapters can be changed via the pull-down button in the preview.

The preview automatically refreshes whenever you make changes in the CSS Editor and HTML Header Editor, allowing you to instantly review the changes made.

Remove Inline CSS

The option to remove inline CSS styles is enabled by default. Enabling this option removes CSS styles embedded in each document. It is recommended that you enable this option and edit the CSS styles using the CSS Editor only to achieve a consistent look and feel in the final eBook.
