Question Missing special features of print edition
I am reading House of Leaves on my Kindle Voyager. The printed edition has a lot of cool features, like graphs, charts, illustration and highlights. Is there any way to get these features in an ebook?

See if there is an illustrated e-book.

That's it? Some ebooks have illustrated and non-illustrated editions? Is this true of all editions (mobi, epub, etc)? Your answer doesn't help much.

Yes, some books (paper and e) have both Illustrated and non-illustrated editions. Other books especially the classics have various editions.

I know it wasn't much help but it is the only answer.

House of Leaves is a fairly unique book, presented in such a way that it's pretty impossible to do properly as an eBook. A PDF on a tablet maybe...


There were plans at one time to release a Kindle version as some kind of enhanced edition, but if it was ever released there must have been problems with it and been pulled from sale as there is currently no Kindle (or other eBook) version made available by the publisher (likely because there is no way to do it properly).
