How to duplicate or combine books

Working collaboratively? You can work on separate books (and even on separate iPads) and then combine them all into one book when you're finished.

The pages of other books can be added to the end of the final book you want to create.

How it's done

  1. From the My Books screen, select the book you want to be the final book (i.e. the book you want to copy the other books to).
  2. Tap the + icon and choose Combine Books.
  3. Choose the book you want and tap Copy to add all of its pages to the end of your current book.
  4. Repeat as many times as you need for other books.

Caution: choosing a book layout

You can only combine books which have the same layout as the current book (e.g. portrait, square or landscape).

How to duplicate a book

Tapping the + button beneath your book will also bring up the Duplicate Book option. 

Press this and Book Creator will generate an exact copy of that book.
