Inserting Your Illustrations
Next, let's insert the illustrations into your manuscript. Place them where they best support the text and enhance the reader's experience.
Hmm, should I put them next to the relevant text or on a separate page?
Either way works! Just make sure they don't disrupt the flow of your book. 📖
Optimizing Your Illustrations
Optimize your illustrations for file size and quality. Large files can lead to slow loading times and higher delivery costs.
How do I do that?
You can use image editing software to reduce file size while maintaining image quality. 🖼️
Testing Your Illustrations
Finally, preview your book to ensure the illustrations look good on different devices and screen sizes.
