: Creating an interactive publication for Android/iOS/PDF/Web I have rudimentary desktop publishing experience, and I would like to create a resume (not in the publishing field!) that I can give

@Jamie315

I would also like to suggest Maglr (www.maglr.com). We provide two solutions:


Start with a responsive interactive publication (readable on multiple screensizes). You can choose from 50 templates. When ready the result is also available as printable A4 PDF.
For the professional designer we provide the Pro editor. You can create and publish whatever you like. With Pro you can design and animate the pages according your own insights, without any restrictions. The design can be separately arranged for desktop, mobile and print from the same source material..


I also have to say, Maglr is a product we are using daily, but also developed ourselves.

Our Desktop Publisher actually does just what you're after and it's all free if you're just after converting a few pages. It takes a PDF and exports it as EPUB, HTML5, PhoneGap. We actually convert text and fonts to real text and fonts, not any cheap bitmapping cheats. Have a look here

I commend you for this but you realize making each independent Apple App, Android App and Web PDF would be very time consuming? Also if I recall IOS apps require you to pay a membership to Apple to publish and the framework is only offered to mac users?

I do see you mention publish but why not learn how to create a digital book in this case learn how to create an epub. You can submit free to Apple as long as your epub is free (you would use your Apple Safari Login with no fees), you don't need an ISBN to submit IF your epub is free. Android devices can view epubs, and an epub is a step up from a PDF. Either option is a learning curve.

Parse and Sencha come to mind.

To be honest, though, I don't know if an app that is all about you is the best use of your time. While I understand that you'd want to show off your programming moxie, I don't think I'd want to have to download your app and have that sitting in my list of apps to get info about you when I can just open a web page for anyone else. It's a lot of work for a questionable return.
