It's going to be at least a couple of years before that becomes anywhere close to reality, and since I'm going to have my sony reader for the next couple of years, I don't really care.

So if .lit files can easily be converted to .epub files, then it makes it possible to read those books on a greater number of computers/devices ![]() On a related note, there are not so many sources for .epub files now, so having one more is not going to hurt, is it? ![]() |

.lit to HTML is circumventing a copy protection so it can result in a DMCA takedown notice for mobileread.

I'm going to work on epub this summer: this is the future standard for xml e-books.
Are you sure that soft hyphens are supported though ? Hyphenated e-books based on an xml format would be MUCH better than LRF for example. |

I'm going to be snotty and point out that BBeB/LRF format is based on XML.
![]() But, I also get the point you're actually making, Hadrien. ![]() |

I'll wait till someone successfully created an ebook DE 1.0 can read and then ask how it was done.

Yeah but BBeB has no ability to define semantic information. It's a total waste of the power of XML. Not that HTML is much better.

Yeah, well, I'll let y'all work that out amongst yourselves -- my opinions on the matter are too ignorant to be worth typing out or reading.
