I have been asked this morning on my discord channel to post chapters as pdf's rather than word documents. That got me wondering what people would prefer - so - here's a poll. The question - would you like me to post in a different format?


Cheers

I don't have word, I have to copy the file to dropbox then view it in there as my PC won't read the files natively.

Stephane Bedard

I checked pdf for the chapters but I would buy the book when done.

Bill Edgin

Word, .rtf, .pdf, just about anything works for me. You write in word, so it makes sense to leave it that way, but saving as a .pdf is just as easy. IMHO, just as long as I can read it, I'm good.

Chad Smith

I prefer PDFs because they scale better to my screen size. But honestly, whatever as long as the story continues. Just no cave paintings as a format.

Well its looking like PDF is in the lead - although six of you think i'm a lazy fucker - you know who you are - and so do I - i think from here on in I'll post in both word and PDF formats. to keep you all happy. The book is probably a given, I just don't know when or how that will work. You guys will be the first to know.

23 is out for medium level subscribers - it will reach your level on the next submission.

Bill Edgin

Well, I'm one of the those six, but it was tongue-in-cheek humor. I can read in any format but .wps. So, IMHO, you can post in any format you want, and I'm good with that...:D

I prefer ePub over both, but both a fine with me.

CJ

Also you could update a "full book version" everytime so new readers can read it in one go

CrispnCrunch

Not intending the negative implications of post both, but if you are going to do PDF, then why not post both?

Craig Button

I prefer word. That way I can do with them what I want. Make my own ePub so I can take with me on kindle.

Docx allows me to open using the kindle app. PDF doesn’t.
