The only way to avoid this is to use font characters like * * * or ~*~ or or something similar, which do not reflect your book’s content or give the same professional feel. Ereaders do not yet support PNG images, so if your reader turns the page to black or sepia for nighttime reading, they will see the white box around your scene break image. Can I Get Rid of the White?īut how do you get rid of the white around your scene break images? Unfortunately, there is no solution for this. The size will vary across ebook readers depending on the resolution of the device, with the scene breaks being smaller on high resolution devices, but the person reading will not know or care about the alternate devices. Cropping the image and using the exact resolution you need will assure that the image looks the same in portrait or landscape. Fifty (50) pixels is a good place to start for cropped images. Again, don’t use your ebook program to change the size but actually change the resolution in Photoshop or whatever other program you use for graphics. The solution is to try several different sizes of images and choose the size that works best across all ereaders. This can result in really huge scene break images that become garish or downright ugly. Unfortunately, some online viewers, like the Amazon previewer that potential buyers use to read the sample of your book, ignore this command and will post your scene break image at exactly the resolution of your original-not the size you told your ebook formatting program to use. My formatter uses Jutoh to create my ebooks, and it’s an amazing program that will allow you to tell the ereader what size to display your scene break image. Making a scene break look good on a previewer and in your ebook can be a challenge if you don’t know about resolution. A Word About Resolution and Online Previewers Often these designs will also be incorporated into the chapter headings and the print books as well. Images or dingbat fonts made into images can make great scene break icons.

Using asterisks (* * *) is a simple way to do a scene break, but creative breaks can make your book look more professional and stand out from the crowd.

Some authors and publishers put an empty line and no indentation on the first paragraph after a scene change to let you know things have switched, but on ebooks, if a scene break happens to occur on a “page” turn, the reader can be confused. Your scene ends but you don’t want to start another chapter just yet.
