UNDERSTANDING EPUB, PDF, AND DRM
eBooks come in a range of formats. When you look for books to read on your Kobo
eReader, look for books in EPUB or PDF formats.
Sometimes books are protected using Digital Rights Management (DRM). DRM prevents
unauthorized copying of books, and is often used to protect the books you get from libraries
and booksellers. There are several types of DRM. Your eReader can read books that are
protected using Adobe DRM.
Once you’ve found books that you want to read, you can choose from several ways to add
them to your eReader. You can transfer books using:
• A wireless connection on your eReader
• The free Kobo Desktop software on your computer
