Gather your finest content, edit it in the native block editor and export into PDF format, ready to read on screen or print on paper. Finished PDFs automatically appear in your Media Library, where you can sell them as digital products, gate behind a membership plugin or send to print. Check out the full video walkthrough of eBook Crafter: #### From published posts to a product Every post you publish gets its traffic once and then goes into the archive. If you package that content as an eBook, the same content becomes something readers will be willing to pay for, sign up to gain access, or print and share offline. eBook Crafter handles the whole process where your content has already been created and saved. #### What will you make with eBook Crafter? * **Travel bloggers** – Sell travel guides built from posts you’ve published. * **Food bloggers** – Collect your readers’ favorite recipes into a book people will happily pay for. * **Marketers** – Create lead magnets to trade expert knowledge for email addresses. * **Educators** – Turn lessons from LifterLMS, TutorLMS or LearnDash into course packs and question banks. Pull in the relevant custom post types, edit in the block editor and export your PDF in minutes. * **Photographers** – Present your best work in a print-ready format clients can buy. * **Students and teachers** – Build yearbooks to capture a school year in pictures and text. * **Anyone** – Preserve your memories in a book you can print and preserve. #### Three main steps to a finished PDF 1. **Gather** – Search your posts, pages and custom post types and pull them into your book as chapters. 2. **Craft** – Arrange cover pages and chapters and a table of contents will be auto- added. Next, fine-tune content for every page in the block editor interface. 3. **Publish** – Export a PDF and it will be automatically added to your Media Library. From there, you can then sell it with WooCommerce, attach it to an opt-in form or gate it behind a membership. #### Free features * Custom eBook post type * Page, Chapter and Table of Contents blocks * Local PDF generation with DOMPDF * PDF version history in the media library #### Ready to take eBook creation to the next level?

This plugin contains no locked functionality. ### External services This plugin connects to the jsDelivr CDN to fetch Twemoji emoji images during PDF generation. * **What it is and what it is used for:** The bundled DOMPDF engine cannot render system emoji glyphs, so any emoji found in your book content are replaced with the open-source [Twemoji](https://github.com/jdecked/twemoji) PNG images, fetched from jsDelivr (`cdn.jsdelivr.net`) and embedded into the PDF. * **What data is sent and when:** Only when you generate a PDF and only if the book content contains emoji. The request contains the Unicode codepoints of the emoji being rendered (as part of the image filename) and standard HTTP request metadata (such as your server’s IP address). No personal data, content, or account information is transmitted. No requests are made while browsing or editing. * **Service provider:** jsDelivr — [Terms of Service](https://www.jsdelivr.com/terms), [Privacy Policy](https://www.jsdelivr.com/terms/privacy-policy-jsdelivr-net). The Twemoji artwork is licensed under CC-BY 4.0. ### Source code This plugin’s JavaScript is built with [@wordpress/scripts](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@wordpress/scripts). The complete source of every compiled file in `build/` is included in the plugin’s` src/` directory, with the build configuration (`package.json`, `webpack.config.js`,` postcss.config.js`). To rebuild the compiled assets: 1. `npm install` 2. `npm run build` PHP dependencies in `vendor/` are managed with Composer (`composer.json`); the bundled libraries (such as [Dompdf](https://github.com/dompdf/dompdf)) each carry their own license and repository information in their headers. ## Screenshots [⌊Content tab — add content, format the pages⌉⌊Content tab — add content, format the pages⌉[ Content tab — add content, format the pages [⌊Build tab — version history with view, download, and delete actions⌉⌊Build tab— version history with view, download, and delete actions⌉[ Build tab — version history with view, download, and delete actions ## Blocks This plugin provides 3 blocks. * Book Section * eBook Chapter * Table of Contents ## Installation 1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/ebookcrafter` directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen. 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress. 3. Open **eBook Crafter** in the admin menu to create your first eBook. ## FAQ ### What WordPress and PHP versions are required? WordPress 6.3 or higher and PHP 8.1 or higher. ### Which content can I include in my eBook? Posts, pages and custom post types. If your lessons, recipes or portfolio items are saved in a custom post type, you can pull them into your book as chapters. ### Can I sell or gate the PDFs I create? Yes. Finished PDFs are saved to your Media Library, so you can sell them with WooCommerce or Easy Digital Downloads, attach them to an email opt-in or place them behind an exclusive membership using a membership plugin. ### Does the free version include the Pro PDF engine? No. The free version generates PDFs with Dompdf on your server. Higher-fidelity Pro rendering is available in [Pro](https://ebookcrafter.com/). ### Does this plugin call external services? No account or API key is required, and PDFs are generated locally on your server. The only external request the plugin makes is fetching Twemoji emoji images from the jsDelivr CDN during PDF generation, and only when your book content contains emoji — see the “External services” section for details. Pro upgrades are purchased on ebookcrafter.com (external link only; no license SDK is bundled in this free plugin). ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/9c24d83527f27d0d1f873bf585eef4ff9b2bc982745387a77390c5557f14867e? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Convert posts to a book](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/convert-posts-to-a-book/)󠁿 [Nagesh Pai](https://profiles.wordpress.org/nagpai/) Tîrmeh 31, 2026 I had an opportunity to test drive this plugin since its early days, and it has come up very well.
