How to read E-book

How to read E-book - 7 


In this time, I will tell you about EPUB. Do you know epub? I think there is few people knowing it. It is the short for electronic publication. It is an open e-book standard by the International Digital Publishing Forum. Files have the extension .epub. 
An epub reader can optimize text for a particular display device. It supersedes the Open eBook standard. Therefore you can read the book more comfortable by converting the extension to .epub. You can use the program for converting the extension. 


To convert format to epub, you need essential outline XHTML. Here is the form. 

------------------------------------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en">
  <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="application/xhtml+xml; charset=utf-8" />
    <title>Pride and Prejudice</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css" type="text/css" />
  </head>
  <body>
    ...
  </body>
</html>
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Also, it supports image files format of PNG, JPEG, GIF, SVG. Other media formats are available but there must be alternative that producer permits.
