How to Create ePub Format Books

E-books are available in many different formats, with ePub being one of the most popular and widely supported. The format is an open standard, so you can convert your existing digital books from a Word doc, raw text file or other electronic document into an ePub-formatted e-book using free online tools. Most desktop e-reader software is compatible with the ePub file format, as are many smartphone and tablet applications, and dedicated e-reader devices such as the Sony eReader and Nook Color.
