The file format can be opened by popular e-readers like the Nook by Barnes & Noble, as well as on computers and mobile phones with compatible software or apps. The format also allows for things like re-sizing of fonts, highlighting of particular passages of text, the addition of notes, page bookmarking, and chapter jumping. Additionally, they are reflowable documents, meaning the flow of text is optimised based on the display of the device it is being viewed on and the boundaries of the screen. See this earlier post about How to Fix Formatting Issues with EPUBs Sent to Kindles.EPUB files are notable for the fact that they can contain text, images, contents tables, specific fonts and file information. If you’re experiencing formatting problems when sending EPUB files to your Kindle devices and apps, it’s most likely an encoding issue. It’s important to note that Kindle devices and Kindle apps don’t and probably never will support EPUB ebooks directly this is all just an elaborate way for Amazon to convert EPUB files to a Kindle-supported format to then send to Kindle devices and apps (the funny thing is they’re dropping support for sending MOBI files but then they convert EPUBs to MOBI to send to the iOS app-that makes a lot of sense).Īdditionally, you can only send DRM-free EPUB ebooks that don’t have any copy protection, so you can’t send Adobe EPUBs, for example, or other EPUB ebooks that you purchased unless they are DRM-free or you remove the DRM restrictions first. There’s also a note saying, “Later this year, Send to Kindle will be removing the ability to send. To send an EPUB file from your Android or iOS device, just select the “Share” option and the Kindle app will show up with the option to send the file to your Kindle devices and account.
