Convert e‑book from Google Docs to PDF

E‑books benefit from clear hierarchy, consistent styles, and linked tables of contents. Here’s how to publish a readable PDF from Docs.

Structure and hierarchy

Use heading levels for chapters and sections. Generate a table of contents that links to headings for easy navigation.

Choose legible fonts and adequate line spacing. Keep body text sizes comfortable for long reading sessions on screens.

Use consistent figure styles and captions. Ensure images are right‑sized for clarity without bloating file size.

Include title page, acknowledgments, and references. Keep a consistent style for epigraphs and quotes.

Export to PDF and test navigation links. Review on tablet and mobile for readability.
