Why does mobi_unpack generate an EPUB file?
|
I will defer to Kevin for the final say on this question, but for myself... mobi_unpack generates an epub because the KF8 format
itself is basically nothing more than a binary representation of an epub.
So since the original source won't be part of a commercially available, DRM-Free KF8 ebook, mobi_unpack decompiles the KF8 data into a familiar, standard, editable format that can be easily modified (or examined) with existing tools/programs and then fed right back to kindlegen.
