How does it work?

Worldwide Reach
“Recently we received customer feedback that some of our oldest ebooks displayed imperfectly on recent- generation ebook readers. The amount of work that IPG did for us reworking our digital content was extraordinary. Ebook issues are very important to McBooks Press, because ebooks make up about 70% of our sales volume.” —Alex Skutt and Panda Musgrove, McBooks Press
“IPG is very open and communicative. They are willing to work together to resolve any issues that come up as we make their files compatible for our service. Their passion for children’s books comes through and we look forward to adding many more titles in the year ahead.” —Tim Ditlow, VP, Content and Stasia Ionkin, Senior Content Manager, Epic!
