Reading on the reader’s terms
Adapt text and layout to different screens and preferences.
Explore this capability +
Reflowable ePub content adapts dynamically to various screen sizes and orientations. This makes it well- suited for a wide range of devices, including smartphones, tablets, eReaders, and desktop computers. Fixed layout, on the other hand, may not display optimally on all devices, especially those with smaller screens.
You can customize the reading experience in reflowable ePub documents. You have the flexibility to adjust font size, choose different fonts, and change margins according to your preferences. Fixed layout, with its predetermined design, doesn’t offer the same level of user customization.
Reflowable ePub is often more accessible to readers with visual impairments. The ability to adjust text size and use screen-reading tools makes it easier for individuals with different needs to consume the content. Fixed layout, with its rigid structure, may present challenges for accessibility.
Reflowable ePub allows users to search for specific text and highlight content, enhancing the overall reading experience. While some fixed layout formats may support these features, reflowable formats generally provide more consistent and user-friendly text search and highlighting capabilities.
Creating reflowable ePub documents can be more cost-effective and efficient compared to designing fixed layout content. Fixed layout often requires more meticulous design work and testing to ensure consistent presentation across different devices.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT FORMATA few useful
A few useful
distinctions.
Fixed and reflowable formats serve different reading needs.
What is fixed layout?+
A fixed layout document has a predetermined arrangement and positioning of elements on the page. The layout remains consistent and does not change based on factors such as screen size, device orientation or user preferences. Fixed layout is well suited to highly designed content — illustrated books, children's titles, cookbooks and comics — where the relationship between text and image carries meaning.
What is reflowable ePUB?+
A reflowable ePub layout allows the content to adapt and reflow based on the size of the screen or the preferences of the reader. ePub (electronic publication) is a widely used format for eBooks, and reflowable is its default behaviour: text rewraps, font size can be changed, and the reading experience adjusts to the device. It is the right choice for text-led titles and the format most accessibility tools expect.
Which is better: ePub or PDF?+
EPUB is generally better for e-books, offering reflowable text and adaptability to different screen sizes, while PDF is better for fixed-layout documents with precise formatting. The choice depends on the content and intended use.
