First draft of my first iBook almost complete.

[mperdue]

I've almost got the first draft on my first iBook ready. I need to write two or three more pages about tools to complete the text and also figure out how to address a couple of quirks. The biggest quirk is when you add a link to a page. You can link to bookmarks, webpages, etc but there's no easy way to return to where you linked from. I don't have a lot of links but I'd really like to find a way to make them go both ways if possible.

This is interesting. Have you a link to a description of the whole process?

No, but it's not too difficult to explain. In a normal iBook if you follow a link to a bookmark elsewhere in the book you get a button at the bottom of the page that will take you back to where you were. In a book made with iBooks Author this doesn't happen. It a bit of a PITA. There's also the disconnect when linking to a web page from your book. Returning is not as seamless at it could be.
