iPublishCentral 3.3 Features Online EPUB Reader

New York - March XX, 2012 - Impelsys, a global leader in providing electronic content delivery solutions, today announced the release of iPublishCentral 3.3, a new version of its award-winning digital publishing software platform.

The highlight of the new release is a new online EPUB reader, which enables users to read eBooks online in EPUB format as well. With the addition of this reader, users can now read eBooks in PDF (fixed layout format) as well as in the re-flowable EPUB format. While the new online reader works best with Safari and Chrome, it is compatible with various browsers and devices as well.

"EPUB remains the most preferred format for reading on mobile devices - such as the iPad - because of its crisp interface and excellent portability across major e-reading devices and smart phones," said Anil Gopinath, executive vice president of global engineering for Impelsys. "With iPublishCentral 3.3, users can read their eBooks in an EPUB format online, which complements the existing capability of reading content in EPUB offline through dedicated apps for the iPad."

iPublishCentral is a comprehensive platform that allows any organization to publish, deliver, distribute and market their eBooks without making significant development investments on their own. Last year, the iPublishCentral platform was recognized as one of the Top 8 SaaS-based Apps in NASSCOM's 2011 Product Showcase.
