The standard ePub and Amazon Kindle ePub eBook formats are so similar internally that we group them together. Almost all their configuration settings are identical, and because of this they can be configured with the same settings in your project's Configuration sections.
Standard ePub eBooks
EPub eBooks are a standard, generic and open eBook format that is supported by many software readers on all computer platforms and hardware devices, including the Apple iBooks® eBook reader on the iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch, Sony Reader and many others. ePub eBooks are cross-platform and a huge number of eBooks are already available in this format.
Amazon Kindle ePub eBooks
Amazon now also uses the standard ePub format as input for their Kindle eBooks. This is the universal ePub format with a few special requirements for Amazon. These requirements are fulfilled automatically by Help+Manual. The resulting ePub files can be distributed directly, also to Kindle reader users, or submitted to Amazon for distribution as Kindle eBooks by Amazon.
