The four steps to create your flipbook

  1. ~60 sec

    Step one

    Upload your PDF

    Create your free ZenFlip account — no credit card required. Then drag and drop your PDF into the upload zone. ZenFlip accepts any PDF: annual reports, magazines, catalogs, ebooks, brochures, training materials. Up to 2,000 pages, up to 500MB per file.

    Customise your flipbook

    Add your branding — logo, colours, and custom domain. Set access controls: public, private, or password-protected. Optionally add a lead capture form to collect reader information. Everything updates live in the preview.

Quick questions about how it works

Do I need to install any software?

No. ZenFlip is entirely browser-based. You upload your PDF, customise, and publish — all within your browser. There is nothing to download or install. It works on Mac, Windows, and any device with a modern browser.

What PDF types does ZenFlip support?

ZenFlip works with any PDF: scanned documents, text-based PDFs, PDFs with embedded images, and complex multi-column layouts. For best results, upload a high-resolution PDF with embedded fonts rather than a flattened image PDF.

How is WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility applied?

ZenFlip automatically applies an accessibility layer to every published flipbook — including keyboard navigation, ARIA roles, visible focus indicators, and a text layer that enables screen reader access to all content. This happens without any configuration on your part. It is on by default and cannot be turned off.

Can I update a published flipbook?

Yes. Upload a new PDF version at any time. ZenFlip republishes to the same URL — your shared links and embeds continue to work without any changes needed.
