How it works

1Upload your manuscriptOne DOCX, one Markdown file, or a zip of Markdown plus the images it references.
2Structure is resolvedHeading styles become chapters and sections. If there are none, chapter breaks are detected from candidate lines in the text — and the report says so.
3Download a validated EPUBA store-ready EPUB 3 with TOC, images, and footnotes, plus a conversion report listing everything converted, approximated, or dropped.

Who uses this tool

The same file, different jobs. Tap a prompt to try it.

SELF-PUBLISHING
From Word draft to KDP upload
The DOCX you wrote in becomes a validated EPUB with chapters and TOC — upload it to KDP as-is.
FICTION AUTHORS
Scene breaks that survive
*** separators stay scene breaks inside chapters instead of shattering your book into fragments.
TECHNICAL WRITERS
Markdown book, zipped with images
A zip of Markdown chapters and their screenshots becomes one EPUB with every image embedded.
ACADEMICS & NONFICTION
Footnotes readers can tap
Word footnotes become proper EPUB 3 footnotes with backlinks — not text dumped at the end.
LEGACY MANUSCRIPTS
No heading styles? Still a book
Old typewriter-style drafts with ALL-CAPS chapter lines get their breaks detected from the text.
SMALL PRESSES
A conversion report you can trust
Every chapter, image, and approximation is listed in a report, so nothing is silently dropped.

Questions

The output is a standard EPUB 3 package with a compatibility toc.ncx, and every book is structurally validated before delivery — the container, package file, navigation, manifest, and spine are all checked. If validation fails, the job fails and your credits are refunded instead of handing you a broken file.
