KOBO compatibility with Project Gutenberg ebooks
Hello. This is my first post to a Forum. I am looking forward to participating. I just purchased a KOBO Reader. Do public domain books located on the Gutenberg Project work on KOBO? Are their any special steps that need to be taken? Looking forward to your response. Thank you.

Welcome!
Your Kobo can read the Project Gutenberg books fine, just make sure to download the epub version. We have tons of books here in our library that are better formatted and also public domain. So chances are good, you will find here what you are looking for. You will love it here! There are loads of informations and fun. Make sure to check out the Freebies and Deals section, our Patricia Clarke Memorial Library and the other forums. Enjoy! |

Good to have your company, Craig. You'll soon get into the swing with your Kobo. In my opinion, it's a much more flexible device than Kindle, which is locked to Amazon's exclusive Mobi format. Luck and best wishes. Neil
