Supported Formats

Electronic books are available in a myriad different formats, which makes transferring documents from one device or reader to another a confusing and difficult task. Stanza aims to resolve this by supporting the reading and writing of as many different eBook formats as possible. If you are interested in support for one of the unsupported formats, please let us know! You can post on our user forums about it, or contact us through e-mail.
