  AZARDI 17 redefines ePub3 fixed-layout.

About this Book    

Famous Paintings is a standard, validated ePub3 book. It will open in any ePub3 reading system that supports fixed layout. However only AZARDI will be able to display the layout as demonstrated in AZARDI 17 due to the interpretation of various combinations of spine properties used to create a unique and new e-book navigation strategy defined without programming. There is no Javascript used in this book.

These combinations do not clash with other reading systems because other systems treat fixed-layout primarily as a linear sequence of pages. AZARDI 17 shows that the specification can be used in a much more exciting way.

Fixed Layout Features

Asymmetric Spreads. AZARDI handles FLO page spreads with different sizes and orientations.

FLO + Reflow. AZARDI handles fixed pages which have reflow properties attached if a fixed layout property is applied with the layout-reflowable property.

Spine linear. AZARDI hides pages that are specified as linear-no unless they are directly linked from a visible page.

Left-Right Positioning. A linear-no page that is positioned opposite the linking page will display next to that linking page.

Vertical stacking. If pages are given left-right properties and the property no-spread, they will stack vertically if the metrics are created correctly.
