Ebook File Type – PDF vs Custom

I have been asked a few times on the recommended format for ebooks.

There are a few alternatives for file types when it comes to ebooks. The most popular and best one to use if Adobe PDF. It is widely accepted in terms of that most of the people have Adobe Acrobar Reader installed on their computer which is used to open the PDF ebook.

The alternative to PDF is DOC and a few custom formats, that  require custom programs in order to open the ebook. With regards to Doc format, its simply not acceptable as the ebook is easily editable in MS Word format and you want to avoid people from editing your ebook.

So, the verdict is that PDF file is the best one to use for ebooks.
