While historically, it’s been difficult at best to create print-quality PDF books from markup alone, CSS3 now brings us the Paged Media Module, which targets print book formatting. “Paged” media exists as finite pages, like books and magazines, rather than as long scrolling stretches of text, like most websites. With a single CSS stylesheet, publishers can take XHTML source content and turn it into a laid-out, print-ready PDF. You can take your XHTML source, bypass desktop page layout software like Adobe InDesign, and package it as an ePub file. It’s a lightweight and adaptable workflow, which gets you beautiful books faster. Nellie McKesson, eBook Operations Manager at O’Reilly Media, explains how to build books with CSS3.

机译：从历史上看，仅凭标记最多很难创建可打印质量的PDF书籍，但是CSS3现在为我们带来了以页面印刷媒体格式为目标的Paged Media Module。 “分页”媒体以有限页的形式存在，例如书籍和杂志，而不是像大多数网站一样以长条滚动的文本形式存在。使用单个CSS样式表，发布者可以获取XHTML源内容并将其转换为可打印的布局PDF。您可以使用XHTML源代码，绕过Adobe InDesign之类的桌面页面布局软件，并将其打包为ePub文件。这是一个轻量级且适应性强的工作流程，可让您更快地阅读精美的书籍。 O’Reilly Media电子书运营经理Nellie McKesson解释了如何使用CSS3构建图书。
