What is an EPUB file?
EPUB (Electronic Publication) is an open ebook format designed for reflowable text—so content adapts to screens of all sizes. An EPUB typically bundles HTML, CSS, fonts, and images inside a single .epub archive.
Because EPUB is flexible and lightweight, it’s great for reading on phones and e-readers. However, when you need a fixed layout—for printing, sharing as a document, or submitting forms—PDF is often the better choice.
About DRM-protected EPUBs
Some EPUBs include Digital Rights Management (DRM). For legal reasons we can’t process DRM-protected files. If your ebook uses DRM, open it in the app or store that provided it, or consult the publisher for non-DRM access.
