Easily create ebooks (epub) using markdown language. The books are targetted towards Amazon Kindle. Therefore we don't support videos and sound.
Because of the fact that the program is written in Python using PyQt5 it should run on all mayor platforms.

In order to work with EbookCreator you have to install the following packages.
pip3 install --user PygmentsTo create a new book, press the "Plus" button and fill out the wizard.
A new book project will be saved under sources under the install directorylike:
/home/user/Apps/EbookCreator/sources
The book already has one part, or call it chapter if you like.
Here you can type your story.
If you want to place a heading which will be seen in the table of contents just use the "#" symbol at the beginning of a line.
The main chapter is marked with one "#" like # Chapter 1.
A sub-chapter is marked with two "#" like ## Chapter 1.1.
The third level will be marked with three "#" like ### Chapter 1.1.1 and so on until you reach level 6.
If you want to add a picture then just open the images tab, press the "+" button there to choose an image and double-click this image in the list to add it to your book at the last cursor position. The "AltText" and "Title" can be changed by hand.
The preview of the book can be seen on the right side of the application.
To export the book as epub just click the create button and choose a filename and a location. To keep all book in one place there is alread a books directory below the installation directory.
