WHAT IS A PDF?
The abbreviation PDF is short for ‘portable document format’.  It is a computer program that formats a document to make it easier for computers to share while still retaining the original formatting (fonts, text, images, etc.).  PDF is the default format for static documents.  The PDF document is indifferent to the device that it is displayed on, or the operating system (Apple/Microsoft) that is used.  It is the standard way for people to share electronic documents.
  • The problem with eBooks created with PDF is that they can be difficult to read on a small screen, such as on a cell phone, because the text and images do not flow gracefully enough to be read.
  • A PDF file is an electronic file, and the basis of every electronic book (eBook).  From a PDF the two major eBook formats are created, EPUB and MOBI.
PDF will remain the standard for document sharing for MS Word and Excel documents.  EPUB is the publishing industry standard because it was designed to make a book’s content re-flowable irrespective of the size of the screen of the ebook reader, portable/mobile device, or computer screen.  The most important point is that EPUB is the standard ‘open format’ for the publishing industry and quickly becoming the standard for most reading devices.  It is maintained by the publishing group of the Worldwide Web Consortium (W3C), the organization that develops web standards.
​What Is AN EPUB?
This is short for ‘electronic publication format.'  It is a computer program that formats a document to make it easier for computers and small-screen devices to display readable text.  EPUB makes the text adapt to every screen size.  It can do this because it is similar to a web page, and an ebook reader is similar to a web browser.  EPUB is the default format for re-flowable documents.

​The EPUB format is accepted and distributed directly by most major ebook stores, including Google, Apple’s iBookstore, Barnes and Noble’s Nook, and Kobo.  EPUB is also the format favored by libraries for ebook lending.
  • The latest version of the EPUB standard is EPUB3 (the first major revision since 2007).  This version implements a group of new features that aim to address key limitations in today’s ebooks.  Key to this is its support for the latest web standards (HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript).
​Open Format Vs. Closed Format
Open format means that a wide range of reading devices can display the publication.  Closed format means that the publication can only be read on the device that it was downloaded onto (meaning it is proprietary to one company).
  • Amazon’s Kindle uses a closed format, which means that publications must be downloaded to the Kindle or can only be read on a computer or smart phone if the Kindle app is installed.  Amazon has begun the process of phasing out the Mobi format in favor of its next-generation format, KF8.
