Note

Processing the book will take some time and slow LUNA down. Large books may take quite some time to process. Consider timing the processing of a book when there are less users on the system.


I don't need the book text to be searchable in LUNA:

The collection you intend to upload the book to needs to be created in LUNA.
You need to get the following book items together and ready for upload.

...

"BookIdentifier" will be the name of the book. XML and   PDF MUST use this name specifically. ("Cats" is name of the book in the example image above)
"ThumbnailImage" indicates which image file will be used as the thumbnail to represent the book in LUNA. Do NOT include the file extension here. Indicate the image with the four digit number. For example: 0005 0004 
"TotalPages" should match the number of images/pages you have in the Images folder.

...

When you Zip the book only zip the contents of the folder not the top level folder. This is very important. If you don't the book will not process.

As shown above you zip

book.properties

Images (folder)

The pdf (optional)




Convert your text-searchable PDF into an XML file

...

Once you have a single PDF you are ready to make the special XML file that is used to search the book's contents. To convert your text-searchable PDF into this special XML file (LUNA uses the XML to enable text searching in the Viewer):

Use the New Online Conversion Utility  

...

Note

To make books that are created from .pdf files text searchable you'll need 3 things for each zip file. The .pdf file, the XML file converted from the PDF file and a book.properties file.

  • My.pdf
  • My_text.xml
  • book.properties
