  • Abstract
    eBooks are suitable genres for a wide variety of professional publications, and eBooks can be produced in file formats including PDF, HTML, Mobi, and EPUB. The IPCC 2012 workshop presented how to identify an appropriate eBook format-PDF, HTML, Mobipocket, EPUB-for producing and distributing these documents. In this working paper, we focus on how to produce Mobi and EPUB documents, since production methodologies are an important part of the file format decision process.
