Kobo host two versions of a booktitle, a epub and a kepub file. If I remember downloadable Adobe epubs can be downloaded from "acs4.shortcovers.com:8080" (Adobe Content Server). The domain shortcovers is part of Kobos back-end.
Other smaller serve books from an external server usally to which the publisher uploaded it books (which already contain some form of DRM protection and which may or may not be further "personalized" when downloaded by a customer).
So, yes. It shouldn't be that difficult to add an Adobe DRM scheme to the source file if the source files is epub3 as the process or workflow isn't any different than that of epub2. |
Again...DRM has NOTHING to do with this thread.
