Online Magazine/Flip Book?

[KeyBlue]

Hi all,

Great to find this forum!

Does anyone have any experience with online magazines/flip books? I'm looking for a service that lets you do the following, although after some research I've not found anything that does what I need it to do.

I'm looking for something that:

- Can be used on any website - uploaded or embedded
- Does not use iFrames
- Is mobile responsive
- Lets me upload a PDF/html 5
- Lets me use visible links
- Generally looks like a magazine

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

It's the responsiveness that is the problem. None of them work well on a small screen. We tested loads of them for a car club earlier in the year and they were all rubbish. So we went for the easy option and just made it a PDF.

Thanks for your reply.

Ideally we want to be able to design it as a PDF and then upload. Some we've tried work but don't offer all the features like links.

Most seem to be Flash-based or in an i-frame which is problematic for mobile/Apple products.

Are there any that, when on mobile, revert to swiping rather than any fancy animation?

Hi @KeyBlue

Have you tried Issuu or Zmags? I'm not sure they meet your criteria, but a couple to research if you haven't already.
