iOS eBooks

2020-06-18 Thread Jan Stirbens 
Hello,

I use a Mac computer.  Is there a utility to convert eBooks to ePub books?  
What is the name of the utility for windows computers?  Maybe there is a mac 
version.

The utility is called Codex, and here is the link but it is for Windows and I 
have no idea if there is any similar utilities for Macs:

If you buy a Kindle book, you would have to read it in the Kindle app, unless 
you have Windows then there is a utility that can convert them to a generic 
ePub book that can be read in Voice Dream Reader.
If you buy an eBook from iTunes, you have to read it in the Apple Books app.

Hi all, I don't have a lot of experience reading full eBooks on my iDevices. 
Which handles this task better, iTune's books or Kindle? I am thinking of 
searching the txt, highlighting and/or bookmarking.

I appreciate some tech guidance .

RE: iOS eBooks

2020-06-18 Thread Richard Turner 
No.
Only Kindle and only with the older version of Kindle for PC mentioned on his 
site.
The reason I never purchase Apple eBooks is that I don’t like reading in the 
Apple Books app and I’ve not found anything that wasn’t on bookshare that 
wasn’t available in Kindle that I wanted to read.
I should say that as far as I can tell, Kindle has everything Apple has and 
possibly more.

But, I don’t really know since I avoid Apple Books.

I know this would be a long shot
But I wondered if there is an emulator like wime that you could run something

Might be worth a look but as I said a very long shot.

I use an online site that is free. I do this a lot and there is another that I

https://convertio.co/epub-txt/
