Sigil and Adobe Acrobat

butterbescotch · 03-23-2011, 06:46 AM

I am sorry if this is a bit off but I can't find where to post my question.

I read that Sigil is only for ePUB but I am reading PDF's so I want to ask if Adobe Acrobat can still edit my ebooks.

Also I considered of editing an ePUB by Sigil and converting it to PDF but that seems troublesome.

Any thoughts?

Anyone?

It is not clear exactly what your question is. Adobe Acrobat can always edit PDF files if they are not DRM. You can convert ePUB to PDF if you wish but why? Sigil does not do conversions.

Oh thanks, because I was planning to change the first page of my ebooks to a picture of the real book cover.

Can Sigil do that with ePUB or should I use Acrobat instead?

Sigil can do that and add any other images you wish.
