Later the invention of printing techniques right from stencil and letter press to litho, lino-type, rotogravure, web offset, flexography, electro photography and screen printing reiterated the relevance of paper.

The development of electronics and information technology (IT) paved the way for computerized dot-matrix printing and impressions based on laser technology, literally sending the good old typewriter into oblivion. And today that means of communication has further progressed to become digital, better known as e-publication all over the globe.

Incidentally, the latest trends took place at a time when there was a worldwide concern over the deteriorating state of environment and the paper, basically made from the wood pulp of felled trees, was deemed to be one of the causes. And somehow directly or indirectly this lent a fillip to e-publication resulting in what is known today as eBook Creation Service.

It is a highly specialized technology based on appropriate software that has lent a new facet to the art and business of publishing. Innovative techniques, style sheets and formats have become the hallmarks of this mode of eBooks. These range from the primary typesetting and conversion of editorial content to varied versions of computer media like XML (extensible mark-up language) and delivery mechanisms for different platforms or devices such as iPad/iPhone, smartphones and Android tablets among others. Of course, the end user of e-publications has to be a computer literate person.

As for publication of e-Books, it is worthwhile to mention that it has made the process of learning any topic truly interesting and thrilling too. Apart from the conventional academics it has become an ideal tool in the affairs of corporate training too. Be it for a tiny toddler at a play school or a director from the top echelon of a company, attending a corporate training seminar, the ebooks have been the medium of instruction. And aptly e-learning has been bracketed with the New Media.
