What is an EPUB file
EPUB (short for Electronic Publication) is an e-book file format that uses the .epub file extension. It is one of the most popular eBook formats used all over the world.
Since EPUB is usually free from digital right management (DRM) restrictions, eBooks in this format can be downloaded and read on many devices. The reflowable file format permits users to open their eBooks on screens as small as 3.5’.
This format is implemented as an archive file consisting of XHTML files carrying the content along with images and other supporting files.
