Making an ePub is easy as pie - look into PanDoc for one trivial-to-use CLI application which can do the job using Word docs or Markdown as a source and emit ePub, PDF, and other ebook formats.
The idea that Amazon is essential to self-published ebooks is blatantly false, and is encouraged by Amazon to lock authors into the Kindle ecosystem.

- noman-land 2y agoIs there something for converting pdf to epub?
- WolfeReader 2y agoYes, but: 1. Calibre can do the job for the case of mostly-text PDFs, while keeping images too of course. I haven't done this, but a quick search reveals that it can give inconsistent results (mostly depending on the source PDF of course). 2. If the "text" of the PDF is actually just an image, consider OCR instead, or treat it as a digital comic as I'll cover next: 3. For digital comics, a different program called CBConvert is what you want. I actually don't think ePubs are the best format for comics, and usually convert to CBZ format instead; CBConvert has this all covered.
