The details a typesetter would sweat

  • Drop caps that sit correctly on the opening lines of a chapter
  • Running heads — author on the verso, title on the recto — with folios where a printer expects them
  • Widow and orphan control, so no paragraph strands a lone line across a page turn
  • Curly quotes, em dashes and ellipses replacing typewriter marks — including the tricky cases like interrupted dialogue and '90s
  • Scene-break ornaments, part dividers, epigraphs with their attributions set right
  • Mirrored margins with a gutter computed from your final page count

Opinionated on purpose

doc2epub is an opinionated typesetter, not a blank canvas: it applies the conventions trade publishers use, and exposes the choices that are genuinely yours — trim size, typeface, ornaments, drop caps, front and back matter. You see every decision in a live preview of real pages before you commit, and the same typesetting drives both the EPUB and the print PDF, so the ebook and the paperback read like the same book.
