One work.
Every fitting form.

01

Print editions

Books designed as physical objects—with considered typography, materials and production appropriate to each title.

02

Digital eBooks

Responsive editions built for comfortable reading across current eReaders, tablets and phones.

03

Translation

Editorial translation that protects voice and meaning while allowing a work to live naturally in another language.

Editorial approach

Technology serves the text.

Every edition begins with the reading experience. Format, typography and technical production should clarify the work rather than compete with it. That principle connects our earliest mobile books with the print and digital editions now in development.

  • Original and translated works
  • Print and accessible digital editions
  • Independent editorial and visual direction

From Java phones
to modern editions.

Handybibliothek was an early QiOO project started in 2003 for reading books on mobile phones. It produced installable mobile editions when small Java handsets were the most widely available pocket computers.

In 2008, QiOO technology also powered Project Gutenberg Mobile. The historical QiOO Mobile format remains documented by Project Gutenberg for older catalogue items today.
