I had a previous career in desktop publishing so I would like to think that I have more experience than most when creating a book. I have created a 58 page book using the smilebooks software. I had a few occasions when I opened the document and random images had dropped out of the book. Really weird. This week I was editing final text to get ready for print and I moved my working folder to my computer desktop. The next time I opened the file, ALL THE IMAGES HAD DROPPED FROM MY DOCUMENT. I am livid. Sure I still have the images in a file folder, but how could this happen. There isn’t even a feature to possibly do this on purpose! Maybe this software is fine for a 10 page coffee book. Of course I have an older version of the file, but I really worked hard on tweaking the design and editing text on the final copy. Furthermore, since you can’t even print a pdf file, I was not allowed to print I copy that would have been helpful in redoing the book. I would not reccomend this software to anyone.
