Kernsetzer

A first look at Kernsetzer

Kernsetzer is still in development. These are screenshots of the app as it is today, with a sample book; details will change before the beta. Three steps take a manuscript to a book.

The Manuscript step: the book's sections in an outline on the left, the text of chapter 1 in the middle, and the warnings panel on the right.
1 Manuscript. Import your Word or Markdown file. Kernsetzer splits it into sections and lists them in an outline beside the text.
The Design step: three themes and the page settings on the left, a two-page spread of the book with a chapter opener on the right.
2 Design. Pick a theme and a trim size and watch the book as spreads. The opener has a raised initial and small caps.
The Export step: buttons for the print PDF and the EPUB, and a short check list that says what may come out differently.
3 Export. A print PDF and an EPUB 3 from the same project, after a check that names what deserves a look.
