About eBook file formats

eBook files are electronic files that can be opened on digital devices known as eReaders. An eReader can be any device such as a computer, a tablet, or a smartphone. The most popular eBook file format is the XML-based ePub. An eBook can contain different types of content such as text, images, and video. Common eBook file extensions and their file formats include EPUB (electronic publication), FB2 (FictionBook 2.0), and Mobi (MobiPocket eBook File).

Convert from eBook formats

With GroupDocs.Conversion you can easily convert your eBook document into another file format.
For example, an eBook to PDF conversion code snippet looks like this:

// Load the source eBook file
const converter = new groupdocs.conversion.Converter("sample.mobi");
// Set the convert options for PDF format
const options = new groupdocs.conversion.PdfConvertOptions();
// Convert to PDF format
converter.convert("converted.pdf", options);

Put it simply - you just load an eBook file into the Converter class, select the desired output format and GroupDocs.Conversion does all the rest.
