LIT eBook

LIT is a file format used for storing eBooks. It often incorporates copyright protection through Digital Rights Management (DRM). LIT files can contain text, images, and hyperlinks. While it was a popular format, its support has diminished over the years. Its primary use is for storing and distributing digital books, but due to DRM restrictions, it is sometimes converted to more widely used eBook formats.

FB2 eBook

FB2 (FictionBook 2.0) is an XML-based eBook format widely used for storing literary works. It offers flexibility in text formatting, image inclusion, and structured content creation. FB2 files support metadata like author, title, and ISBN, facilitating digital library management and organization. This format is suitable for long-term archiving and distribution of eBooks, preserving the text's formatting and structure. It's an excellent choice for eBook enthusiasts and digital preservation efforts.
