Convert PDF to EPUB And Become a Publisher


EPUB is designed for reflowable content, meaning that the text display can be optimized for the particular display device used by the reader of the EPUB-formatted book. The format is meant to function as a single format that publishers and conversion houses can use in-house, as well as for distribution and sale.
Features of EPUB are:

It is Free and open
Re-flowable (word wrap) and re-sizable text
Inline raster and vector images
Embedded metadata
DRM support
CSS styling
Support for alternative renditions in the same file
Use of out-of-line and inline XML islands to extend the functionality of EPUB

EPUB consists of three specifications:
Open Publication Structure (OPS) 2.0, contains the formatting of its content.
Open Packaging Format (OPF) 2.0, describes the structure of the .epub file in XML.
OEBPS Container Format (OCF) 1.0, collects all files as a ZIP archive.
PDF - short for Portable Document Format, a file format developed by Adobe Systems. PDF captures formatting information from a variety of desktop publishing applications, making it possible to send formatted documents and have them appear on the recipient's monitor or printer as they were intended. To view a file in PDF format, you need Adobe Acrobat Reader, a free application distributed by Adobe Systems.
