One way to create a project is to import a DRM-/copy-protection-free ePub file. To import epub-files, the menu item File > Import ePub-Book must be selected in the Main menu. In the appearing Open dialog you can select the ePub-file to be imported. eBookBinder scans the selected file and creates an eBookBinder project from the data, which can then be edited.
Note: As mentioned in this section, eBookBinder can only read DRM-free ePub files. Purchased eBooks are, in most cases, DRM-protected and therefore unreadable with eBookBinder.
Note: Since ePub files are very free in their structure, in some cases unexpected results may occur.
