EPUB to FB2 Conversion FAQ

How do I convert EPUB to FB2 without losing reflowable text?

Upload your EPUB file and the converter rebuilds the FB2 container around the same reflowable text stream — paragraphs, line wraps, and chapter breaks all adapt to the reader's font size and screen width. We do not flatten reflowable EPUB into fixed pages.

Why does my EPUB file refuse to convert?

DRM, in almost every case. A protected EPUB is encrypted and tied to an account, and no converter can decrypt it — ours included. Files you created yourself, or bought from a DRM-free store, convert without any trouble at all. EPUB has no fixed pagination, so page numbers are meaningless, and complex layout — tables, equations, multi-column — degrades badly.

Does the EPUB to FB2 converter handle DRM-protected files?

No — DRM-encrypted EPUB files (Adobe ADEPT, Kindle KFX with personal device key) are encrypted at the bit level and cannot be processed. Strip DRM with the publisher's authorized tool first, then convert the unprotected EPUB to FB2 here.

Can I read the converted FB2 on my Kindle / Kobo / Nook?

Depends on the FB2 format. MOBI and AZW3 work on Kindle (Paperwhite, Oasis, Scribe). EPUB works on Kobo, Nook, Apple Books, and any reader except older Kindles. For Kindle compatibility specifically, target AZW3 (KF8) — it preserves layout better than legacy MOBI.

Is my EPUB file private during conversion?

Yes. Uploaded EPUB files are processed on our own conversion servers, nobody reads the manuscript, and nothing is shared. The upload and the converted file are deleted automatically about 24 hours later, which leaves time to download the result. The full data-retention policy is at /privacy/.

How long does EPUB to FB2 conversion take for a full novel?

It depends on the size and length of the file. Small documents and images are usually ready quickly. Long videos take the longest, because most video conversions re-encode every frame.

Why does my FB2 look different from the EPUB in the reader?

Reflowable ebooks are not pixel-perfect by design — each reader chooses its own font, margins, and line spacing. The FB2 contains the same content as the EPUB; visual differences come from the reader app, not the conversion. Use a fixed-layout target if pixel fidelity matters.
