Flipbook software creates embeddable flipbooks for websites by converting files (such as PDFs) into HTML5. Users can upload preselected images through a PDF or presentation file and convert it into an automatic or interactable image scroll for a website. Some flipbook software is capable of creating full digital publications that simulate physical books with page turn animations. Flipbooks are a visually appealing addition to any website that can showcase a business’ products, goals, and achievements.
Flipbooks are often made by creative teams or web designers, but most offerings are intuitive enough for newcomers to pick up with little explanation. Some desktop publishing software will offer flipbook creation as an additional feature within their offering, but many flipbook products are offered standalone.
To qualify for inclusion in the Flipbook category, a product must:
Convert files into HTML5 or Flash digital publications
Create embeddable digital publications
Provide content templates and editing tools for digital publications
