Getting Started with ePub Documents

 * EPUB became an official standard of the International Digital Publishing Forum (IDPF) in September 2007, superseding the older Open eBook standard
 * **EPUB** (short for **electronic publication**; alternatively capitalized as **ePub**, **ePUB**, **EPub**, or **epub**, with "EPUB" preferred by the vendor) is a free and open e-book standard by the International Digital Publishing Forum (IDPF). Files have the extension //.epub//.
 * 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.



**If you are looking to create an ePub document try Pages from Apple!**
