Now that you know how to use Google Docs as an ePub creation tool, we’re ready for the fun stuff. Simply go to the File menu > Download as > EPUB Publication (.epub) ( Source). To make it easier for authors, publishers, and academic institutions to create works that can be consumed digitally, they now offer the ability to export Google Docs files as EPUB publications.

EPUB is the most widely-supported file format for publishing accessible documents and digital books, allowing people to consume long-form content in their preferred apps on a diverse range of screen sizes and devices, including smartphones, tablets, and ereaders. Use Google Docs as an easy tool to create an ePub-formatted ebook as I shared in this blog entry. Before we go through the process, let’s take a moment to revisit how you can create an ePub-formatted ebook for free.

Ever wish you could turn student-created ePub files into narrated audio books? Or make any ePub into an audio book? You can on your Windows 10 computer, by taking advantage of the Freda ebook’s built-in audio reader.
