Can I share my book with someone?

What you can share depends on your license.

  • Personal License: for private use. You can show the book to people close to you, but you can't post the file online or distribute it to a group.
  • Educational License: share freely for educational purposes, including with students or a class.
  • Commercial License: share publicly, including as part of a paid product.
  • Author License: share, publish, and sell anywhere, under your own name. Full rights.

To share your book, download the file and send it:

  • PDF. Download the PDF and share the file by email, Dropbox, Google Drive, or anywhere else.
  • Word document. With a Commercial or Author license, you can also download a Word document so you can edit the book (cover, title page, author byline, or any content) outside of TailoredRead before sharing or publishing it.

See How do I choose a license for a new book? if you need a license that allows sharing.
