Flipbook FAQ

How do I create my own flipbook?

All you need to do is upload your publication in PDF format. Our software converts the PDF file into a fully functional flipbook in just a couple of minutes — no technical expertise required.

What are the optimal PDF settings for the best output?

We recommend saving your PDF with 72 DPI to 150 DPI images for the best results.

My flipbook is loading very slow, what can I do about it?

If your flipbook is slow, the quality is probably set too high. Go to settings and adjust the resolution to a lower setting.

How do I put the flipbook on my website?

After purchase, you get a zip file containing all the files you need. Extract the files and upload them to your website. The download includes a readme.pdf guide with step-by-step instructions including screenshots. If you need help, contact us at info@instantflipbook.com.

What files are supplied when I purchase the flipbook?

After purchase you receive a ZIP file that contains HTML, JavaScript, and image files. All you have to do is upload these files to your website in order to make it work.

Is it possible to link email addresses in the flipbook?

Yes — you can easily add email addresses by typing the following into the link editor: mailto:youremail@address.com

What is the maximum file size I can upload?

The upload form supports files up to 250 MB. Files larger than that are most likely saved in print quality, which isn't necessary for an online flipbook. Save your PDF with 72 DPI images to reduce file size. If you need help or your file is very large, contact us at info@instantflipbook.com and we'll upload it for you.

How can I link to a specific page within the flipbook?

Add ?page=5 at the end of the URL to your flipbook and it will open on the specified page, for example: www.yourdomain.com/flipbook/?page=5

How do I track clicks in my flipbook with Google Analytics?

Use the Google Analytics URL builder to create trackable links. More information can be found here: Google Analytics URL builder
