You choose what comes out

Nine ebook formats in one place

EPUB for most readers, MOBI and AZW3 for Kindle, FB2, LIT, LRF, PDB, TCR and a PDF laid out for an e-reader. The other apps here fix the output; this one asks you.

Your title and author, not the filename

A converted document usually lands in the library as "final_draft_v3". Type the real title and author before converting and the book files itself properly.

No install, no account

Everything runs from this page over an encrypted connection, in EU data centres, with no human access. Your files are never used to train AI models.

Which ebook format should you pick?

Nine are available. Start with where the book is going to be read.

Format Read on Notes
EPUB Kobo, Nook, Apple Books, Google Play Books The open standard, and the safe default
AZW3 Kindle The better of the two Kindle formats
MOBI Older Kindles Use it when AZW3 is refused
FB2 Russian-language readers and libraries Widely supported in that world
PDF (Ebook) Anything at all Fixed pages, so text will not reflow
LIT, LRF, PDB, TCR Discontinued readers Only pick these for a specific old device

A target reader profile, border, base font size and the input encoding can be set alongside the format. All of it is optional.

Why convert to ebook?

Ebooks are a great way to read texts on the go. Whether you have an ebook reader, a tablet or a smartphone, ebook formats let you read comfortably wherever you are.

There are many different ebook formats out there. Some of them are supported by specific devices only, others can be read on almost any reader or with a free app.

A document is not a book until it says so

Word files, PDFs, ODT, RTF, TXT and HTML all convert here. What comes out is a real ebook: the text reflows to whatever screen it is opened on, so the reader can change the font size without the layout falling apart.

Two things are worth filling in before you start. The title and author fields decide how the book appears in a library. Without them it inherits the filename. And if the source is an older text file, the input encoding setting prevents accented characters turning into nonsense.

Add as many files as you need and they convert in one go, each returned as its own ebook with the same settings applied.

Document to ebook FAQ

Is this converter free?

Yes. Everyday conversions are free and need no account: upload the file, pick a format and download the ebook. A subscription only matters for very large files, longer batches and priority processing.

Which format should I choose if I do not know the device?

EPUB. It is the open standard and it opens on Kobo, Nook, Apple Books, Google Play Books and almost every reading app. Modern Kindles accept it too, sent through Amazon's own delivery service.

Can I convert a Word document to EPUB?

Yes. DOC and DOCX both convert, as do ODT, RTF, TXT, HTML and PDF. Headings become chapter markers, so the finished book has a working table of contents.

Why should I set the title and author?

Because a reader's library sorts by them. A file converted without them shows up under its filename, which is rarely the name of the book.

Will the formatting survive?

Headings, paragraphs, bold and italics, lists, links and images all carry over. Fixed page layouts do not, and they should not: an ebook reflows so the text fits whatever screen it lands on.

Can I convert several documents at once?

Yes. Add as many as you need and they convert together, each returned as its own ebook in the format you picked.

My accented characters came out wrong. What went wrong?

The source file most likely declares the wrong character set, which older TXT and HTML files often do. Set the input encoding before converting and the characters come through correctly.

Can I convert a book I bought?

Only if it has no DRM. That protection is part of the file and no application can remove it.
