Converting etext to epub
The Swedish public domain site Litteraturbanken has a lot of texts in what they call "etext2 format ( an example http://litteraturbanken.se/#!forfatt...sLeverne/etext
I'm not sure what this is. Does anyone know and have any ideas of if/how you'd be able to convert it to epub?

I used your link and found this on their website:

Quote:
The Swedish Literature Bank offers literary works either as searchable e-text, as facsimiles of the original edition, as PDF files or as EPUB files – often in more than one format. The texts are available free of charge and the software is developed as open source.
It looks like their literary works are available as text files, PDF, ePub etc.

Etext format
Hello owly!
Our "etext" files are in TEI xml in our database, and then transformed into HTML for web display.
This is the list of texts currently available as ePub, http://litteraturbanken.se/#!epub however we plan to make all our etexts available as ePub by the end of February, 2013. So just hang in there!
All the best,
Cai, editor at Litteraturbanken
