    Why Do Ebooks Need Automated Quality Checks?

    By Darshan Shah | Quality Assurance | Comments are Closed | 28 January, 2023 | 0

    The rise of ebooks has revolutionized the way we consume literature, making it easier and more convenient than ever to access a vast array of reading material. As of 2022, about 12.8% of the world’s population has started using ebooks, and statisticians predict that by 2027 there will be approximately 1,123.2m ebook users worldwide. 

    With this comes the need to ensure that ebooks are of the highest quality and free of errors. 

    Automated quality checks for ebooks are vital in streamlining the ebook experience and ensuring that digital books are polished, professional, and error-free. In this blog, we will delve into the importance of automated quality checks in the world of ebooks, exploring the various ways in which they improve the reading experience for users and maintain the reputation of publishers.

    From technical errors and factual inaccuracies to accessibility and user experience, we will uncover the hidden gems of automated quality checks and how they are crucial for perfecting digital reading material.

    9 Reasons Why You Need Automated Quality Checks for Ebooks

    To Eliminate Technical Errors

    One reason for the need for automated quality checks for ebooks is to ensure that the ebook is free of technical errors. This includes checking for broken links, formatting errors, and missing images. 

    These technical errors can make the reading experience frustrating for the user, which can negatively affect the publisher.

    Automated quality checks can quickly identify and fix these issues, ensuring that the ebook is accessible and easy to read.

    To Eliminate Factual Errors

    Another reason for the need for automated quality checks for ebooks is to ensure that the ebook is free of factual errors. This includes checking for inaccuracies in the text and ensuring that the book is up-to-date with the latest information. 

    Factual errors can be misleading to readers. Automated quality checks can quickly identify and correct these errors, ensuring that all the information in the ebook is accurate and can be relied on. 

    To Ensure Compliance with Copyright Laws

    Automated quality checks for ebooks ensure that the ebook complies with copyright laws. This includes checking for plagiarism m and ensuring that the book has the necessary permissions and citations for any copyrighted material used. 

    Copyright violations can lead to legal issues for the publisher and result in expensive litigations and reputational loss. Automated quality checks can quickly identify and correct copyright violations, ensuring that the ebook is legally compliant.

    Improving Accessibility for The Physically Disabled

    Going the extra mile to ensure that your ebook is readable by people with specific disabilities shows you in a positive light. By making your ebook more inclusive, you not only widen your potential customer base and increase avenues for improved sales figures. 

    Automated quality checks can look for issues such as missing alternative text for images, improving the brightness/contrast of text/images as well as ensuring that the book is compatible with assistive technology. These checks can quickly identify and fix these issues, ensuring that the ebook is accessible to all readers.

    Ensure Uniformity and Consistency 

    Another important reason for the need for automated quality checks is to ensure consistency and uniformity throughout the ebook. This includes checking for issues such as consistent formatting, consistent use of language, and consistent use of grammar and punctuation. 

    Consistency is crucial for creating a polished and final professional product. Automated quality checks can quickly identify and fix inconsistencies, ensuring that the ebook is well-crafted and professional.

    Improved Searchability and Usability

    In addition, automated quality checks for ebooks can help improve the ebook’s searchability. This includes ensuring that the book is tagged correctly and indexed, as well as ensuring that the book has a logical and clear table of contents. 

    This makes it easier for readers to find the information they need and improve their overall reading experience.

    Ensure Compliance with Industry Standards

    Automated quality checks ensure the ebook complies with industry standards. This includes checking for issues such as EPUB validation and ensuring that the ebook is formatted correctly for the target device or platform.

    Industry standards are essential for ensuring that the ebook can be read on various devices and platforms. Automated quality checks can quickly identify and fix any issues, ensuring that the ebook is compatible with the most popular reading devices and platforms.

    Improve the Localization of The ebook

    Automated quality checks can improve the localization of the ebook. This includes ensuring that the book is translated correctly, as well as ensuring that the book uses appropriate cultural references and idioms. 

    Localization is essential for ensuring that the ebook is accessible and relevant to a global audience. Automated quality checks can quickly identify and fix any localization issues, ensuring that the ebook is suitable for readers from all backgrounds and cultures.

    Improve the Overall Experience Quality

    Finally, automated quality checks can improve the overall user experience of the ebook. This includes ensuring that the book is easy to navigate, has a logical structure, and has a clean and uncluttered design. 

    A positive user experience is crucial for keeping readers engaged and encouraging them to return to the ebook. Automated quality checks can quickly identify and fix issues that could negatively impact the user experience.

    Wrapping Up

    In conclusion, automated quality checks are essential for ensuring that ebooks are of the highest quality and that they meet the needs and expectations of readers, from technical to factual errors, copyright compliance, accessibility, consistency, searchability, industry standards, localization, and user experience. 

    In addition, automated quality checks can quickly and efficiently identify and fix any issues, which would have been time-consuming and labor-intensive when done manually, ensuring that the ebook is polished, professional, and accessible to all readers.
