Thanks, Douglas. Do you have equations in your book? If so, could you show me a page with several?

This would cost more than any of the other Adobe packages over the long haul, but considering all you get I've considered it. The only thing holding me back is I don't really need even one of the apps (for now), let alone all of them.

These ePub/iBooks publishing articles from TUAW should also provide some insight and guidance.

Thanks. I plan to read through this before getting started.

It is a very nice looking book, indeed. I wish it were free.

Thank you. There is a free sample of it available.

No I don't have any equations in either book. However, I am putting together another chapter for the stage lighting graphics text that has equations like the Pythagorean and the inverse square law. I thought, since I only have a few that I would create them in Word and just export them as graphics into InDesign.

Here is a good article on the difficulties of equation editing going from Word to InDesign or other publishing software.

After reading some oh this I'm concerned that any work having lots of equations, both inline and not, is going to be a major headache. I'll have to do one small warm up projects before getting to far in.
