ePub Creator插件简介

ePub Creator插件描述

ePub creat allows you to save web pages opened in the browser as offline ePub ebooks.
It currently suppts:
 • any web page that can be opened in Firefoxs Reader Mode, which should wk f most textbased websites
 • books opened in the online reader of the library service overdrive.com, which cooperates with many local libraries wldwide 


How to create/save books:

 • open the web page  book you want to save
     • on overdrive, go to "Loans"  choose "Read now in browser"
 • click the extensions icon (blue book with green arrow, should be at the top right of the browser, see screenshot)
 • wait while the animation on the icon is spinning
     • this can take a while if the ebook contains many pictures etc.
     • f Reader Mode pages, it will prompt f the books auth
 • save  open the ebook when prompted 


Whether saving content with this extension is legal  not depends on the content  your local legislation. Checking that is your own responsibility. Just because you can do it doesnt mean you should.


What you get & Troubleshooting:

 • F general web pages, Mozillas Readability.js is used to extract the content. Since that is the same software component used by Firefox to generate the Reader view, the result should generally be the same as well. All resources (e.g. images) that show up there should also be included in the ePub book. If parts of the website are missing in the book, please check whether they show up in the reader mode. If not, there is little I can change about that.
 • Books from overdrive.com are not simply downloaded, but the content is parsed from the open book. The ToC is rewritten, most of the fmatting is stripped  everything gets repacked. While images are generally still included, their sizing might be off on some readers, rendering this quite useless f comics  the like.
 • If you have a problem that is not explained by the limitations above, please check f / open an Issue on GutHub. 



Permissions used:

 • Display notifications: Only as direct consequence of clicks on the icon  to rept errs
 • Access your data f all websites: Download page content if you choose so
 • Access recently closed tabs: Remove own popups from the recently closed windows list
