Download eBookBinder Mac 1.13.1 Overview

eBookBinder is a lightweight utility for creating ePubs on the Mac. It is designed to assemble existing text documents into a properly formatted eBook, without requiring the user to know anything about HTML or ePub packaging. The workflow is simple: you input the book's title, author, cover image, and other metadata. You add text files as chapters (each file becomes one chapter, rearranged by drag-and-drop). Then you click "Bind Book" to compile everything into a finished ePub. The app supports a very wide variety of source formats — plain text, Word (.doc), Open Document (.odt), Rich Text Format (.rtf/.rtfd), HTML, Textbundle and Textpack files — as well as markup language support for Markdown, MultiMarkdown, Textile, Wikitext, BBCode, Smark, and the newer ApexMarkdown engine, which adds support for Quarto and Pandoc grid-table options. Documents formatted using markup are automatically converted on import, and there is an optional splice function that will automatically split a large document into separate chapters based on its headings, which become chapter boundaries. A CSS template and an HTML-Head template allow further customisation of an eBook's final appearance. A Reduce feature strips all but a selected passage -- genuinely useful for cleaning up a web article before turning it into a chapter. Advanced users can inject custom HTML heads and CSS stylesheets, import existing DRM-free ePub projects for further editing, and export projects to share with collaborators. The project manager in eBookBinder automatically saves book metadata and supports a large variety of international character sets. Version 1.13.1 released August 6, 2026, rework app Markup settings, updates ApexMarkdown engine to version 1.1.13 with new Quarto/Pandoc grid-table options, and updates ApexMarkdown UI for macOS Tahoe. eBookBinder is available from the Mac App Store for $5.99. It requires macOS 10.13 or later and is localised in English and German. It is also available directly from the developer’s website where it offers a 30-day unrestricted demo.

Key Features

Simple 3-Step Workflow Enter book details, add chapters from existing text files, and click "Bind Book" to assemble a complete ePub. You do not have to know manual HTML or ePub packaging. Support for a wide range of source files Import chapters from plain text, Word (.doc), Open Document (.odt), Rich Text Format (.rtf/.rtfd), HTML, Textbundle, and Textpack files. Each imported file becomes a chapter. Robust Markup Language Support Import Markdown, MultiMarkdown, Textile, Wikitext, BBCode, Smark and ApexMarkdown documents, and automatically convert them on import. Covers a wide range of writing and technical documentation workflows. ApexMarkdown Engine Quarto/Pandoc Support The new ApexMarkdown engine (version 1.1.13) adds Quarto and Pandoc grid-table options, which further extend markup conversion capability for more technical or academic writing pipelines. Chapter Splicing Automatic Rather than manually breaking up a large Markdown document into separate chapters, you can enable the splice feature to perform this task automatically, using its headings as chapter break points. Css & HTML Head Templates Use dedicated CSS and HTML-Head templates to fine-tune the final visual appearance of an eBook, giving more control over the formatting than just a default style. Feature Reduction Strip an imported document down to just a selected passage. Good for cleaning up web articles or excerpts before including them as a chapter. Import of DRM-Free ePub Import existing DRM-free ePub files and convert them to a new, fully editable book project in eBookBinder. Mobi Export with Kindlegen Use eBookBinder's Mobipocket preferences to set up the kindlegen tool for creating Mobipocket (.mobi) files for Amazon Kindle devices and apps.
