cottonmama Posted December 3, 2012 Posted December 3, 2012 Has anyone found one of these three sources of free e-books to have consistently better quality formatting? If the same book is available at all three, which would you use? Quote
Mrs Mungo Posted December 3, 2012 Posted December 3, 2012 I wouldn't say it was at all consistent. It is varied. I usually actually look at the file before downloading it. Quote
Jayne J Posted December 3, 2012 Posted December 3, 2012 I have had the best luck with Google books, but I am not familiar with Manybooks, so I can't compare. IME Google books has tended to keep pictures and formatting better than other sources. Quote
Mergath Posted December 3, 2012 Posted December 3, 2012 Meh. A lot of the books from any of the three sources aren't great. When it comes to classics, I find it's easiest just to pay a buck or whatever and get the ebook from Amazon. It's definitely worth paying a very small amount to get good formatting, no typos, etc. Is there a certain book or genre you're looking at? Quote
Elfknitter.# Posted December 4, 2012 Posted December 4, 2012 I tend to prefer the PDF versions on Google Books to any ebook format. Quote
