04-Big-book

Introduction In this module we will learn how to create a big book using Bloom.

We will continue to use the new Basic Book template (even though there is an old template for creating a Big Book). With the Basic Book template we can create a large book and also the same book in A6 format from a single file. In fact, it is easier to start with the A6 book and then print it at A4 landscape.

What will you do?

• We will first create a new A6 book.
• Then we will publish it in simple A4 format.

4.1 Creating a basic A6 book

• Start Bloom
• Create a Basic Book (see Chapter 2)
• Check the page size is A6
• Edit the book

4.2 Complete the book as desired

Fill in - the cover - the title page - Add the pages - Add text - Change the images - Fill in the credits page.

4.3 Publish - Simple option

To print it as a Big Book, you publish it using the Simple option on A4 paper.

To make an even bigger Big Book, you can photocopy it onto A3 paper.
