Abstract

iBooks Author je aplikacija za izradu elektroničkih knjiga. Dokumenti kreirani u iBooks Author aplikaciji mogu biti eksportirani u pdf format i objavljeni na Apple-ovom iBooks Bookstore-u u obliku interaktivne elektroničke knjige. iBooks Author je besplatna aplikacija namijenjena nekomercijalnoj upotrebi, s edukativnom svrhom objavljivanja elektroničkih knjiga. Aplikacija se fokusira na edukacijske autore i male izdavače koji mogu samostalno kreirati elektroničke knjige. Knjige kreirane ovom aplikacijom mogu se izdati samo na Apple-ovom iBookstore-u, kao besplatna knjiga ili uz naknadu. Princip rada aplikacije je WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get - što vidiš to i dobiješ): tretiranje teksta, tipografije, boja, pozadine, fotografija, interaktivnim elementima i grafikonima. Sadržaj i pojmovnik se generiraju automatski. Korisničko sučelje i mogućnosti uređivanja su sukladni postojećim Apple-ovim aplikacijama (Pages, Keynotes, Numbers). Dokumente je moguće izrađivati pomoću predefiniranih predložaka koji olakšavaju izradu početnicima. Poznavanje programiranja nije neophodno, jer način rada omogućuje objektno pozicioniranje i oblikovanje. Izlazni finalni format datoteke je sličan EPUB standardu (ePub - slobodni otvoreni ebook standard, International Digital Publishing Forum), s ekstenzijama koje onemogućuju da budu čitljivi na svim elektroničkim čitačima. Format koristi XML način imenovanja, matematičko renderiranje i interaktivne opcije. U diplomskom radu obrađuje se princip i metodologija rada unutar aplikacije, korištenje alata za oblikovanje i uređivanje, te finalizacija i objavu finalnog proizvoda - elektroničke knjige.

Abstract in english:	iBooks Author (iBA) is an e-book authoring application by Apple Inc. Documents created with iBooks Author may be exported as PDF files or be published to the Apple iBooks Bookstore. iBooks Author is available free of charge. Apple describes iBooks Author as a tool for "educators and smaller publishers to create their own books". Documents created by iBooks Author may only be sold for a fee if they are accepted by and distributed by Apple, but authors also have the option to distribute their work anywhere if the work is being distributed for free. Many aspects of a document may be edited in WYSIWYG fashion, including text, fonts, colors, foreground and background images, interactive widgets, and charts. Tables of contents and glossaries may be managed with some automation. The user interface and editing features have been described as nearly identical to Apple's Keynote and Pages products. The output of iBooks Author is a proprietary Apple file format similar to the EPUB standard, but with extensions that prevent it from being universally readable or editable as an EPUB document. The format uses undocumented, proprietary XML namespaces and undocumented extensions to CSS. In this work I’m going to describe and elaborate iBooks Author application, using all tools for editing and making e-books, as well as publishing and finalizing process of making e-book.
