EpubCCConvert Word to EPUB
Upload a Word .docx and EpubCC builds an EPUB 3 from the document's own structure: Word headings become chapters and the table of contents, and footnotes, lists, tables, links, bold, italics and images carry over. Every EPUB is checked with EPUBCheck, and up to 3 books a day are free.
Up to 3 whole books a day free. No account needed.

What carries over from Word
- Headings (Heading 1, Heading 2…) become chapters and the table of contents. Documents without heading styles are read by their formatting: short, larger or bold lines.
- Footnotes and endnotes, linked both ways.
- Bulleted and numbered lists, tables, links, bold, italics and superscripts.
- PNG, JPEG, GIF and SVG images, resized for e-readers.
- Title, author and language from the document's properties.
What doesn't
- Old .doc files: open them in Word and save them as .docx first.
- EMF, WMF and TIFF images can't be shown in an EPUB. The report tells you how many were left out.
- Text boxes, headers, footers and Word's own table of contents (the EPUB builds its own).
- Page layout: an EPUB re-flows to the reader's screen and font size.
For the best result
Use Word's Heading 1 style for chapter titles and Heading 2 for sections. That is what turns into the chapters and the table of contents of the e-book.

Is it free?
Yes, for most documents: up to 3 a day, each up to 300 pages and 50 MB, with no account. Pro and Business convert longer ones.
How are the pages of a Word document counted?
A Word document has no fixed pages, so EpubCC uses the pages Word itself last laid out, which it saves inside the file. When a file doesn't have them (some apps don't save them), every 350 words count as one page. That count is what the 300-page limit and your plan's pages use.
Does it work with .doc files?
No. Open the file in Word, LibreOffice or Google Docs and save it as .docx, then upload that.
What happens to my file?
Your document is deleted as soon as the whole book is converted, or 2 hours after its last conversion. The EPUB is deleted 1 hour after your first download, or 24 hours after it's ready. Files are never published or used for training.
