Since Mobi is our least used format, and since issues that affect the EPUB generally apply to the Mobi as well, we put less effort into checking and tweaking the Mobi version of each book. (These numbers are a bit rough because people can download multiple formats.) How popular would you expect each of these to be? We tracked some downloads recently and found that about 55 percent of the downloads were PDF, about 35 percent were EPUB, and about 8 percent were Mobi. Mobipocket, generally abbreviated to just Mobi, is similar to EPUB, but is relevant only for those who prefer to read on one of Amazon’s Kindle devices or apps. EPUB gained popularity after Apple’s release of iBooks, and it’s best for small-screen iOS devices because it reflows to match the screen and your desired font size. PDF is the format we started with back in 2003, and it remains the best option for reading on a computer or a large-screen iPad, since we put significant effort into keeping text and associated screenshots together on pages, avoiding widows and orphans, and creating an attractive two-column layout for our Crash Courses. We release all Take Control ebooks in three formats: PDF, EPUB, and Mobipocket.
