-baker-page-screenshots ( string ) - since 3.1:
Path to a folder containing the pre-rendered pages screenshots. The files must be named
screenshot-portrait-1.jpgfor portrait andscreenshot-landscape-1.jpgfor landscape, where '1' is the page number, incremental (1, 2, 3, ...). Be sure to provide ALL the screenshots for your book since, if this property is specified and some screenshots are missing, Baker won't generate them. See the tutorial page to find out how to use the iOS Simulator to generate the screenshots.

"screenshots"): Possible options are"screenshots"and"three-cards", all lowercase. See the page on Baker rendering modes. -

true): Whether a bounce animation should be shown when a vertical scrolling interaction reaches the end of a page. -
-baker-media-autoplay ( boolean, default:
true): Whether media included in the book pages should be played automatically when the page is loaded (opposite of the mediaPlaybackRequiresUserAction property in theUIWebViewclass). -
-baker-vertical-pagination ( boolean, default: false ):
Whether vertical page scrolling should be paginated in the whole publication. Since 4.1 this setting can be overridden on a per-page basis by adding the tag
<meta name="paged" content="YES">inside the<head>tag of the HTML file. -

If the number given to the parameter is negative (i.e.-baker-start-at-page: -1or-baker-start-at-page: -2), the publication will be used in "manga mode", i.e. starting at the end and with numbering reversed. Please note that to obtain manga mode you also have to reverse the order of the pages in the content block.
