FB2 is FictionBook 2 – the XML e-book format used by Russian and Eastern European libraries (LitRes, Flibusta, Librusec), many Android readers and PocketBook devices. PDF is the universal document format for printing and reading on any device. Fileopia converts between them locally – no software, no account, no upload.
Common uses
- Read FB2 books on any computer, tablet or phone, or print them.
- Move a library between reading apps.
- Archive DRM-free books in an open format.
- Prepare classics from Project Gutenberg for school.
Tips for best results
- Check the title and author in the result info line after conversion.
- A5 page size gives the most book-like PDF; 14 pt is good for large print.
- Convert a whole folder at once.
How it works
The FB2 XML is parsed with your browser’s XML engine; every element is mapped to clean XHTML and base64 binaries become image files. An EPUB is assembled in memory and laid out as a PDF with embedded fonts, bookmarks and images.
Compared with other converters
Online e-book converters (CloudConvert, Convertio, Zamzar, online-convert) upload your book and cap free use per day or by size. Calibre is excellent but a 150 MB install. Fileopia runs instantly in a tab and keeps your library private.
