Please upload your publication as a single PDF file with the following settings:
- All pages in a single PDF file, with the pages in order
- Single pages (not double page spreads)
- 300 DPI (or greater)
- Cropped to exact art size (please remove cropmarks/bleed)
- Embedded fonts (not subset, please avoid CID Type H encoded fonts)
- Flattened Transparencies and Smooth Shade elements
- Try to avoid using excessive use of complicated vector graphics (consider substituting vector graphics/art with a PNG/JPEG image)

Video Codec: .MP4/H.264 encoding using baseline codec

Tip - When placing the overlay on your publication, click on the “Use Content Aspect Ratio” checkbox, which will make sure that you don’t skew or stretch your video beyond it’s original resolution. Alternatively, add your videos within a HTML overlay to achieve more advanced effects. For more information, contact support@yudu.com.
Audio
You can easily add an audio file to your publication within a content or HTML overlay. Audio files just need to be uploaded in MP3 format.
The player controls are slightly different on Web, Android and iOS so it is worth proofing your publication before publishing live.
Tip - Click on Auto-Play if you want the audio track to start playing whenever a reader navigates to the page you’re editing
