Every converter here is free, full size, no account. Photos convert in your browser and never leave it, except camera RAW files and SVG tracing. Those, like video, audio and e-books, need our server — and we delete them right after.

Why e-books need converting at all

A Kindle can't open an EPUB copied onto it, and EPUB is the format almost everything else uses: bookstores, library apps, Kobo and most other e-readers. For copying a book to a Kindle over USB, older Kindles want MOBI and current ones do best with AZW3, which keeps more of the original formatting. (Sending by e-mail is different: Amazon's Send to Kindle now takes EPUB directly and converts it itself.)

Which format should I pick

EPUB or MOBI? EPUB for everything except a Kindle; for a Kindle over USB, an ebook MOBI (or AZW3) file. As a Kindle ebook converter it outputs both, so converting ebook to Kindle formats is just picking one of them.

One ebook converter for everything

This aims to be any ebook converter you need in one place — EPUB, MOBI, AZW3, PDF and TXT, without switching tools for each format. As an epub ebook converter it works both ways: EPUB out to any of the other four, or any of the other four back into EPUB.

Wondering if the cover comes along? This is not a separate ebook cover converter — the cover image travels with the file automatically whenever you convert between EPUB, MOBI, AZW3 or PDF.

How to convert an e-book here: drop the file in, pick the format, download. There's no file convert software to install; Calibre does the work on our server, so it runs the same way on Windows, Mac, Linux or a phone. How can I convert an e-book without installing Calibre? Exactly like that.

About your file

A browser cannot rewrite an e-book's internals into another format, so your file is uploaded to our server, converted there and deleted right after. We keep no copy. The video compressor and the other video tools work the same way; photos (HEIC, PNG, WEBP, JPG) convert entirely in your browser. Books with DRM (copy protection) can't be converted.

Limits: up to 100 MB per file. Two convert at a time, so at busy moments you may wait a moment for your turn.

Kindle-bound specifically? EPUB to MOBI is the same converter, pre-set for that one job. Need a fixed page layout instead — for a comic or a textbook? EPUB to PDF does that.

Converted it for a book club or class discussion and need page numbers people can actually reference? ScanReviver's add page numbers stamps them across the whole file.

Don't have a digital copy of the book at all, just the physical pages? ScanReviver's book page scanner turns phone photos of each page into one clean PDF first, ready for this converter.

Common questions

How do I get an EPUB onto my Kindle?

Two ways. By e-mail or the Send to Kindle app: send the EPUB as it is, Amazon converts it. By USB cable: convert it to MOBI (older Kindles) or AZW3 (current Kindles) here and copy the file into the Kindle's documents folder.

Is it free?

Yes. No account, no watermark, no per-file charge.

Is my e-book uploaded?

Yes. A browser cannot rewrite an e-book's internal format, so the file goes to our server, converts, and is deleted right after.

Does converting lose formatting?

Some. EPUB and AZW3 keep the most detail; MOBI is older and simpler; PDF locks the page layout exactly; TXT throws away all formatting and keeps only the words. Complex layouts (textbooks, comics) survive PDF best.

What is the file size limit?

100 MB per file.

Can I convert PDF to EPUB?

Yes, in either direction between any of the five formats. A scanned PDF (a photo of each page) won't convert well, since there is no real text to extract; a PDF made from text converts cleanly. To convert PDF files from a scanner into something readable, run them through OCR first.

Is there a free e-book converter online, like Calibre but in the browser?

Yes: this online converter uses Calibre itself on our server and converts EPUB, MOBI, AZW3, PDF and TXT without you installing anything. Your file is deleted right after.

What is the best free e-book converter?

Calibre is the most powerful desktop option, and it's free. This page is quicker if you just need one conversion: drop the file in, pick the format, done.

Does the cover come along?

Yes, the cover image travels with the file when you convert between EPUB, MOBI, AZW3 and PDF. TXT has no cover.

Can I convert books one at a time or in a batch?

One at a time: to convert book files, drop one, save the result, then the next. The converted book keeps its chapters and text; only the format changes.

Is it an ebook file converter for all five formats?

Yes, in either direction: it's an ebook file converter and an ebook online converter in the sense that it runs from any browser, while every ebook conversion online happens on our server. Want to turn book into ebook form from a PDF or TXT? The same box does that too.
