E-book with ISSUU

DTU has a license for the publishing tool ISSUU, which allows a pdf file to be presented as an e-book - a digital book which allows the user to 'flip' between the pages just like in a real book.

What is an ISSUU eBook?

When a PDF is converted to an e-book through ISSUU, it is displayed in a format that looks like you are flipping through a book as the pages turn.

ISSUU can e.g. play videos directly in the e-book

It is also possible to embed the e-book directly on your page

See an example of an e-book made with ISSUU.

This is how you get an e-book created

DTU has a single-user license, which means that unfortunately we cannot create new users on this license. Therefore, e-books must be created by the web team.

Write to webteam@dtu.dk and send a single-sided pdf (it is important that it is not double-sided) with the document to be converted into an e-book.

We will then send back a link and/or an embed code to the finished e-book.

The handling time can be up to a week.

If a week is too long a turnaround time, it is possible to take out a subscription to ISSUU yourself. Read more at www.issuu.com.

How to insert your e-book

Once your e-book is created, you will receive a link from the web team.

You can now insert your e-book in the same way as you insert an external link. READ MORE: Insert link
