I would like to publish a 32-page eBook picture book. What is a reasonable dpi size for photos (1 to a page?


I created a 32-page pdf picture book with PhotoShop Elements 3.1, and it’s 106 MB. I’m sure that’s too large for an eBook. If I insert photos into a Word document, I can convert them to WordPerfect and make one pdf out of all the pages, but is this something that could be turned into a Kindle book, or something I could convert to MobiPocket or Lulu eBooks?

    The standard dpi for printing is 300, but for electronic viewing only 72 ppi is necessary. So if it’s an eBook, you can get away with 72.
