You can share it with other users and even back it up efficiently to make sure you never lose any of your content. It is a powerful eBook manager that allows you to access thousands of digital books and keep them in an immaculate digital library.
In many ways, this software has helped to establish the foundation for newer and more advanced tools in the future. CalibreĬalibre is the oldest, the most popular, and quite possibly the best free ebook reader in use today. This means you can access and read books easily, even if you do not have a physical copy available with you. It is used almost exclusively to publish digital versions of printed works or documents in non-editable (i.e., fixed) formats. The term was originally an acronym for electronic publication, but it is no longer capitalized as such. Before we start: What is an EPUB?Īn EPUB is a multi-purpose electronic publication format whose structure is based on that of a Web page. However, you need an EPUB reader program to open an EPUB file, which means you won’t be able to view it in your browser or other programs that can’t handle EPUB files such as Photoshop or Word.įortunately, there are some great Free EPUB Reader for Windows that you can use to open and read your EPUB files easily. This makes it easy to read on multiple platforms, since you don’t have to worry about platform specific formats or programs to read the file. A second good option is Adobe Digital Edition, but it only reads epubs and PDF formats.Ĭons: Doesn't enable you to read books from external storage devices without first having to import them to its shelf, which means the taking up of space in you internal HD.An EPUB file contains e-book content that can be displayed on most devices. The minus side of Stanza is that it cannot work without Java. In my experience Stanza has been the best alternative to save space in my PC HD and be able to read from any external storage device, not to mention the possibility of reading and converting a good variety of ebook formats. With Calibre, everytime you want to open a book stored in an external HD, it will automatically import the book from the external device to your PC HD so as to display it on its shelf and enable the reading. If you like me, want to save precious space in your PC Hard Drive and for this reason keep all your ebooks in an external storage device, then Calibre is not a good option. Not a good option for those who need to save space in their HD.
