The complete workflow
From the first sentence
to the final signature.
Most writing apps stop at words. Oyama Scribe understands that a book is also structure, rhythm, typography, reference matter, and physical pages.
Design the whole volume
Set trim, margins, gutters, typography, chapter openings, running elements, and numbering from book-aware tools that share the same project.
Build serious reference matter
Create subject and scripture indexes, manage citations, footnotes, endnotes, sources, and bibliographies without leaving the manuscript.
Proof and deliver everywhere
Review fixed pages and complete spreads, run publishing preflight, then export PDF, DOCX, EPUB, or a mobile-ready Oyama WebViewer.
Built for complete books
The tools around the manuscript are part of the manuscript.
Use one native project to move from an opening page to running heads, reference matter, page numbering, and a finished export.
Book Design
Set the rules once.
Trim, margins, running pages, numbering, themes, and reference design are available where the book is being made.
Book Themes
Shape the reading voice.
Choose or create reusable typography for body text, headings, paragraph rhythm, and the complete manuscript.
Review
See what needs attention.
Keep validation, manuscript context, and review tools together while preserving the writing surface.

Each part of the application shares the same manuscript, structure, and production settings. There is no export-and-rebuild step between writing and page design.

New publishing tools
From manuscript intelligence
to an online reading room.
Build the reference pages readers need, then publish the same book as print, ebook, or a branded WebViewer ready for your own site.
Online publishing
Export an Oyama WebViewer.
Publish one chapter or the whole manuscript as a self-contained, mobile-ready reader with paged or scrolling modes, reader themes, font controls, keyboard navigation, and swipe gestures.
Scripture intelligence
Recognize references. Keep control.
The Scripture Index Builder reviews Old and New Testament references in The Spirit of Truth, preserves manual entries, and prepares a separate, publication-ready scripture index.
Subject indexing
Turn repeated ideas into a useful index.
Review suggested subjects, names, and phrases, add custom terms, and apply only the entries you choose. Existing manual, Word-imported, and scripture markers stay intact.
Reader preview
Read before your audience does.
Preview the reflowable book in a focused ereader, check rhythm and readability, and move between print proof and digital delivery without maintaining separate manuscripts.
Your workspace, your light
Four deliberate themes.
One honest page.
Choose Paper, Light Muted, Ebook Paper, or Dark for the application around your work. System mode follows Windows automatically, while the page remains a faithful picture of the finished book.
Made with Oyama Scribe
