You might be uploading a thousand pages so don’t expect it to be done in a blink. While it converts, you can do something else like browsing other stuff on ISSUU or perhaps the usual bathroom routine. If you feel like your file or publication has been processed already, a message on the dashboard will tell you that your stuff is now published into ISSUU. Open you work up to check and feel free to distribute them anywhere on the net. You can also do multiple uploads by selecting UPLOAD MANY FILES. After browsing, uploading and converting, ISSUU adds them to MY LIBRARY. ISSUU automatically adds the information to the new online uploads. If you want to change the said information just select the document or publication and click the edit button.
