60-second summary

Quick answer

EPUB export requires a paid plan. Finish text edits, choose EPUB in Preview & Download, then check navigation, chapter order, headings and images in a reflowable ebook reader.

Before you start

What you need

  • Use a paid Automateed plan and open a completed book owned by the signed-in account.
  • Finish chapter-order and text edits before generating the EPUB.

Procedure

Complete the task step by step

  1. 01

    Confirm paid-plan access

    EPUB export currently requires a paid Automateed plan and a completed book owned by the signed-in account.

    Current app screenAutomateed Download menu with EPUB export option
    Choose EPUB from the visible Download menu, then proof the resulting file in an EPUB reader.
  2. 02

    Finish content edits first

    EPUB should be generated after chapter text and order are final.

  3. 03

    Choose EPUB from Download

    Use the export menu on the preview/download page.

  4. 04

    Inspect the file in an EPUB reader

    Check navigation, headings, images and paragraph flow on more than one screen size.

  5. 05

    Validate marketplace requirements

    Each distributor can impose additional metadata and file rules.

Success check

Confirm that it worked

  • A .epub file named from the book title downloads and opens in an EPUB reader.
  • Navigation, chapter order, headings, and images remain usable across different reader window sizes.

Important notes

  • EPUB is reflowable, so page breaks and image positions will not match the PDF.
  • The export includes a cover when available, title and author information, navigation, chapters, and images; the selected font is also passed to the endpoint.

Troubleshooting

If it still does not work

EPUB is unavailable or returns a subscription-required error

EPUB export currently requires a paid Automateed plan; upgrade or use an export available to the current plan.
