Directions for Installing Books

From download to reading

Use the file supplied with your order. Most e-books are EPUB files and require a compatible reading app. An EPUB is not a PDF or Word document.

Download your file

Open Downloads in My Account or use the download link in your order email.

Check the file type

If the supplied file is a ZIP archive, extract it first. Use the EPUB in a reading app, or a PDF reader for a supplied PDF.

Open or import

Import the file into your preferred app. For device-specific steps, follow the current instructions from the provider below.

Choose your device

Kindle

Use Amazon’s Send to Kindle service for supported EPUB files. Do not copy the EPUB directly to a Kindle by USB and expect it to open.
