great drm-free ebook question

by Violet Blue on December 30, 2007

A publisher just emailed me asking how I’m packaging all my files for Digita Publications (DRM-free, erotic and how-to audio and ebooks).

Publisher: What program do you
use to save your files to make your ebooks? I see that
you’re offering more than simply PDFs and I’m curious.

Me: I use Adobe Acrobat to make a .pdf
I use Word or Text Edit to make a plain .txt file
I use Palm Doc Converter to make a .pdb people can use on their Palm/Treos:

Then I zip it into one file, and sell the one .zip so it’s a multi-platform package; people can pick and choose to what suits their device and reading preferences the best. No DRM, so they can put it anywhere they want, or share it. Yay!
