Save As eBook for Chrome

eBook readers have become very popular recently, and finding books for your device is certainly not difficult, but accessing web-based content is not as easy.

Save As eBook is an interesting Chrome extension that enables you to convert any web page, or a certain selection, to the EPUB format, which is supported by pretty much every eBook reader out there.

Once the extension has been added to your browser, it will be available from the Chrome toolbar. When you have found a page that you wish to save, you just need to click the icon and select the first option. However, it is also possible to only save a text selection.

Regardless of what you choose to save, the EPUB file is created very quickly and is then saved to your default downloads folder.

Instead of saving pages directly, you also have the option of adding them as chapters. Once added, their order can be changed later and you can remove any of them later on.

The chapters are saved even after you shut down Chrome, so you can add content during multiple sessions until you are ready to export your eBook. You can also set the book’s title before creating the EPUB file.

Save As eBook doesn’t exactly offer an extensive feature set, as you can’t customize the generated eBook in any way, and no other output formats are supported. The UI is also quite basic, but this isn’t really a major issue.

Save As eBook is a handy extension for users who wish to save web content locally in eBook format, as it is very easy to use and even makes it possible to create chaptered books. It doesn’t offer a lot of features, but it is a great choice if you are only interested in creating EPUB files.
