XMLmind Ebook Compiler (ebookc for short) is a free, open source tool
which can turn a set of HTML pages into a self-contained ebook.
Supported output formats are: EPUB, Web Help, PDF, RTF, WML, DOCX
(MS-Word) and ODT (OpenOffice/LibreOffice).
Ebookc features:
- Topic-oriented like DITA and DocBook 5.1.
- Automatic TOC.
- Automatic “back-of-the-book index”.
- Automatic cross-references.
- Automatic numbering of sections, tables and figures.
- Footnotes.
- Conditional processing.
- Built-in XInclude.
- Leverages CSS to create nicely formatted books and this, even for
output formats like PDF and DOCX.
All in all, ebookc is an authoring tool nearly as powerful as DITA or
DocBook, but being based on HTML and on CSS, it is much easier to learn,
use and customize.
Forthcoming XMLmind XHTML Editor v7.5 (or its superset, XMLmind XML
Editor) will have out of the box, extensive support for creating an
ebook specification and its source HTML pages and for converting an
ebook specification to a number of output formats. XMLmind XHTML Editor
Personal Edition is free to use by many persons and organizations.
