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 worldwide.
Since EPUB is usually free from digital rights management (DRM) restrictions, eBooks in this format can be downloaded and read on many devices. The reflowable format lets users read their eBooks on screens as small as 3.5'.
This format is implemented as an archive file consisting of XHTML files containing the content, along with images and other supporting files.
