Convert AZW to EPUB

Understanding AZW and EPUB file formats

The AZW file format is a proprietary eBook format developed by Amazon for its Kindle devices. It is based on the MOBI format but includes Amazon's own DRM (Digital Rights Management) protection. AZW files are primarily used for eBooks purchased from the Amazon Kindle Store.

The EPUB file format, on the other hand, is an open standard for eBooks and is widely supported by a variety of eReaders, except for Amazon Kindle. EPUB files are known for their flexibility and ability to adapt to different screen sizes, making them a popular choice for eBook distribution.
