which is better for a novel iBook Author or Pages?
I started creating my iBook novel from importing the chapters from MS Word. I used the simple "Classic Text" portrait template. It's taken a long time to figure out how to get the chapters in there properly since it automatically designates chapters, sections and pages.
I had to create a seperate MS Word file for each chapter to import the novel into iBooks Author.
The second problem I ran into was that my novel has 3 Parts and there is no easy, straightforward way to insert Parts. iBook Author only lets you add Chapters, Sections or Pages.
The third problem is that I can't totally control the Chapter names in the automatically formatted TOC. I didn't originally call them chapters. I called the chapters "Days" since the novel is about each day on a 16 day cruise (in outer space to Saturn). iBook Author insists on calling them Chapters and when I rename it refuses to let me change Chapter to Day. For example it only allows Chapter 3 - Day 3 instead of Day 3 - Red Ball.
Then today I noticed that when previewing on the iPad iBook Author created Portrait formatted books don't allow changing of text size.
I'm wondering if I should start all over with Pages. I on't own it so I would have to purchase it. I don't know why the iTunes Connect doesn't have anything about using Pages to create a novel or an iBook.
