Refining the E–book Format
Beyond editorial quality, publishers need to continue to refine the structure of the e–book format. Reflowable e–books do not have fixed page numbers. Page numbers have been a fundamental organizing system of books for millennia, but in e–books have no relevance. Therefore, the industry needs to continue to evolve and refine the e–book format to be as useful and efficient as a print title without the benefit of page numbers. The implications are far-reaching, and impact indices, intra-text page references, and all other ways in which page references occur. Thinking through the implications of a book that lacks page numbers is a critical task in making e–books work.
