Make Your Own E-books From Your Favorite Web Content<\/span><\/h1>\n

If you’ve ever wanted to save online articles, computer tips, recipes, or any web content. EpubPress makes it easy to do. EpubPress makes it a snap to create e-books from open tabs in Chrome or Firefox.<\/span><\/p>\n

I used Chrome for this test, but the EpubPress extension also works with Firefox.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the example below, I had four tabs in Chrome open to pages with interesting articles.\u00a0 You can choose as many articles as you want.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Here are the four tabs I had open in Chrome.<\/span><\/p>\n

1.) The massive rocket creates a fireball as it launches…<\/span><\/p>\n

2.) Lincoln Continental limited edition with “suicide doors” sells out<\/span><\/p>\n

3.) Facebook reportedly may face FTC’s largest-ever privacy violation fine<\/span><\/p>\n

4.) Forget No-Carb. Embrace Slow Carb: The Salt: NPR<\/span><\/p>\n

In order to make an e-book out of those 4 articles, was click on the EpubPress extension icon in Chrome\u00a0 give it a title (I called mine “News Ebook Test” ). I included an optional description.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Once everything was like I wanted it, all I did was click “Download”.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Cloudeight<\/span><\/p>\n

You’ll see a progress dialog showing your e-book being created.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Cloudeight<\/span><\/p>\n

A few seconds later my ebook was downloaded. Keep this in mind: The larger your e-book, the longer it will take EpubPress to create it.<\/span><\/p>\n

EpubPress has several nice options.\u00a0\u00a0You choose the file type of your e-book. E-pub can be read in all E-book readers including Calibre, MS Edge, Nook and others. If you have an Amazon Kindle, you can save your e-book as a .mobi file and read it on your Kindle or download and install the Kindle for PC<\/span><\/a> (Windows) to read it.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Cloudeight<\/span><\/p>\n

Besides letting you download your e-book, you can have EpubPress email it to you. Just type in your email address and click “Save”.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Cloudeight<\/span><\/p>\n

The e-book EpubPress is quite nice – it even includes a clickable table of contents.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you’re using Windows 7\u00a0 or Windows 8x, or Windows 10 and you don’t want to use Microsoft Edge to read e-books, Calibre is the best free e-book reader available – in our opinion. You can read more about and\/or download Calibre here<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since every Windows 10 computer has Microsoft Edge installed, I took the screenshots below while reading the e-book in Microsoft Edge.<\/span><\/p>\n

Most e-book readers allow you to change font sizes and view your ebook in various screen modes, including full-screen.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
