what ebook format should I get to be able to work with the S-pen (Kindle , epub , pdf ) ?
Anybody know where can I get pdf ebook ?
I would always lean toward epub, I haven't investigated drm ebooks on here yet, but all the ebooks I have I convert to epub to read with fbreader (on both android for all tablet phone and book reader)
edit;
my book reader isn't android, but does have fbreader.
I use calibre on win and Linux PC's to convert formats
I use epub instead of pdf as it is easier to reflow text for various screen sizes and screen rotate

Calibre cannot translate the Snotes .snb format and i haven't found anything that can. It is an obscure format. I wonder why Samsung used it other than to force people to have their devices to read it.

If you want an ebook to use with the S-Pen I suggest you go for PDF format. As far as I know there are no ebook readers (Apps) that allow marking up epub or mobi files. If you use pdf there are several apps that allow for marking up pdf files with the pen,

Ez pdf reader will open pdf files and when you select the pen at the top it will ask you if you want to copy the file for making annotations and then on that copy you can write what you want with the s pen. BTW the copy will show up in the library shelf when you open Ez pdf reader.

Hey I am looking for a good ebook reader. Basically I have tons of ebooks in txt format (from projekt gutenberg) and some pdf ones. Right now I am using a purchased version of Repligo to convert it and view it on my pda, the viewer is really really nice... now I want to switch to an macbook and wanted to ask the comunity if there's a better way like an comfortable txt viewer? I'm aware of XPDF for PDF files which is nice but kind of not that comfortable to read books
THX in advance

uBook was a very good I used to use, but I just convert the txt or html files into Microsoft LIT format now and use their reader.
Not sure if uBook is still free though.

Does anyone know what file format(s) the kindle app and google books app uses?

The kindle uses mobi files, not sure about google.
Most likely would use something like epub or pdf for Google I can't see Google locking down the ability to import book files.
But if it comes down to it Aldiko Book Reader has been a pretty good reader for me and offers option to import epub and pdf files and has access to free bookstores where you can get classic books like Alice in Wonderland and the likes.
Do a search on the market for "Aldiko Book Reader" as I can't post a link to it
Most pdf files i think
So I dropped some PDF and epub files on my internal storage but I can't get them to show up in google books. I am assuming I need to put them in a specific folder but I can't seem to find that folder. Anyone know what/where it is? Or what exactly I need to do to get them to show up in G-Books ?

Everyone has stated above already. I just want to let u know that you can get free ebook app.
You can use the free Calibre program, to manage and convert ebooks from one format to another.

Unless the books are drm free, Google, nor any other reader besides the one it's locked down to, will not be able to view them.

Hello I tried to search the forum and saw nothing on this topic and hoping that there is a solution. I highlighted some documents that I have in .pdf format on the computer using the Adobe reader software. When I try to open the saved .pdf on my xoom with aldiko it does not show any of the text on the highlighted pages just the color. On pages that have not been highlighted the text is visible. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
I hope there is a solution because I will have to revert my documents back to when they were not highlighted just to view them on my xoom.
Thanks,
wbmustang
Other PDF viewers
I haven't used Aldiko for pdf files. But, I just tested out viewing a pdf that I had highlighted, and added notes to, on a computer. These apps all opened it fine on my Xoom:
Adobe reader
PDF To Go (I believe part of Documents to go)
RepliGo Reader
RepliGo is nice for adding annotations directly to a PDF on an Android device.
It is not hard for you to observe that the majority of the books you got from online ebook stores are ACSM format but not the Common EPUB or PDF format we frequently used. We will recommend you a new way about how to convert ACSM to EPUB or PDF in this wee essay so that you can read books on more readers like iPad, iPhone and other computers.
so you can go to epubsoft homepage to check the guide item, then you will find the way easily.

wt* is acsm, i've never seen any ebooks in that format, the majoriy of the ebooks are ebub
How to convert acsm to pdf
1. Want to read acsm on computer (Win/ Mac), we just have to open it with Adobe Digital Editions.
2. Want to read ACSM on iPad, iPhone and even on Kindle, open it with ADE is the basic work. But you have to check out that if they are protected with Adobe DRM which makes it difficult for us to read them on non-Adobe eReaders.
So the post below may perfect your opinions I think.
How to Convert ACSM to PDF--Epubor.
Kindle(which versions),Ipad,Nexus,Samsung tab etc..?
Well, most readers support epub and for the mobi format I sugguest you use the ebook manager 'Calibre' (Freeware). This programm can convert mobi format into the format you prefer.
I personally use the pocketbook touch (622) ebook reader it seems to support epub (for sure) and prc(mobi) (not tested myself yet).
Nook as well

I have a Kindle that I received as a gift - but I use Calibre and it auto-converts epub to mobi without me having to do anything. Great for laziness and not using braaaiiiiins.
