I've been researching ebooks, specifically converting PDFs to epubs, and have come to the conclusion that either Adobe InDesign or Calibre (free software) is the best choice. I wouldn't even think of using Storyline because there is so little text control.
The approach we take for clients is to combine content from many sources (PDF, powerpoint, videos, and HTML5 Storyline exports) in an ebook publishing platform. Each authoring tool is used for the task it was developed for. The ebook serves as the curation and multi-platform delivery tool. This is an example. https://repubitdigital.com/publication/?i=563001

This is great information.
Thank you.

Hi Linda!
Hopefully some users will be able to chime in and assist if they have any experience with this. I know I've seen forum threads about this before.
Can I build a Multi-platform EBook in Storyline?
eBook design
I also wanted to mention that replying to the forums via e-mail attaches your signature, but you are welcome to pop in and edit if needed.
I just created my 1st ebook using powerpoint then converted it to a PDF. It worked perfectly.
Hi Darlene,
Could you please forward me an example of your power point ebook?
