About the EPUB Format

EPUB (Electronic Publication) is the most widely adopted open ebook standard, maintained by the W3C (formerly IDPF) and published as ISO/IEC 23736. First released in 2007 as the successor to the Open eBook format, EPUB uses XHTML for content, CSS for styling, and ZIP compression for packaging. Its defining feature is reflowable text — content automatically adapts to fit any screen size, allowing readers to adjust font size, margins, and line spacing on phones, tablets, and dedicated eReaders.

EPUB is natively supported by Apple Books, Kobo, Nook, Google Play Books, and nearly every eReader and reading app outside the Kindle ecosystem. EPUB 3, the current version, adds support for embedded fonts, SVG graphics, MathML equations, JavaScript interactivity, audio/video embedding, and comprehensive accessibility features including text-to-speech and screen reader support. While Kindle devices do not read EPUB natively, the format can be converted to MOBI or AZW3 for Kindle compatibility.
