PubHTML5
PubHTML5 turns PDFs and other printed material into digital publications that readers can view online or offline. It is designed for individuals and media businesses publishing magazines, catalogs, brochures, reports, ebooks, and other multi-page works. Publications can combine video, audio, links, animation, images, and slideshow popups. Templates and controls let publishers adjust logos, backgrounds, colors, buttons, and navigation; readers can open a publication by URL or through an embed code. Listed integrations include Google AdSense, Google Analytics, and a WordPress flipbook plugin. PubHTML5 Metrics reports page views, time on page, zoom patterns, and widget interactions. Its Pro security features include password protection, restricted access, remote authentication against a user's database, and controls that prevent support staff from viewing private content. The free plan allows five uploads per day and books up to 500 pages, but includes ads and a watermark and lacks advanced editing for adding video and audio. Paid plans start at $12.42 a month.
