EPUB to HTML Converter
An EPUB to HTML converter packs the book into one file with the pictures inside — it opens in a browser, no reader app.
An EPUB to HTML converter packs the book into a single web page: the chapters run one after another, the pictures sit inside the file, and it opens in any browser — no reader app needed.
What happens when you convert EPUB to HTML
A book is already built from web pages, but they are zipped up together with service files, and a double click will not open that in a browser. HTML unpacks the book into one document.
- Every chapter lands in the same file and runs in order, with no jumping between "pages".
- Illustrations are embedded in the file: nothing has to sit next to it, and the book travels as a single attachment.
- A table of contents laid out as a page inside the book stays clickable and jumps to the chapter within the same file. The navigation menu of a reader app belongs to the app, not to the book, and does not come along.
- Headings, lists and tables keep their markup, so the text moves into a CMS without being laid out by hand.
- The character encoding is written into the file, so accented and non-Latin letters show up right away.
- Reader-app styling does not come along: you get plain markup and attach your own stylesheet.
If the book has to be printed or sent somewhere that expects a document, use the EPUB to PDF converter. When the text has to be edited, use the EPUB to Word converter.

Frequently asked questions
Why is the HTML file bigger than the book?
The pictures are stored inside the file itself rather than as separate files beside it. That costs size, and in exchange the page opens as-is on any computer.
Why is the cover missing?
In some books the cover is pasted in as a separate wrapper page rather than as a normal chapter picture. A cover like that does not make it into the single file, while the text of the book is all there.
Can I put the file on a website?
Yes, it is an ordinary web page — upload it to your hosting. The headings and lists are already marked up, and the look comes from your own styles.
