For each of our electronic products, we select the appropriate format(s) to offer based on that format's ability to present our products in the best light. The ePub format is ideal for electronic books that are mostly text, but it lacks the support that the PDF format has for precise layout of images and special textual formatting.
Because of this, only the Pathfinder Tales fiction line is available in ePub form at this time; the rest of our Pathfinder products are available only in PDF form.
ePubs can easily be converted for use with your Kindle, and I'm told the result is as good as the native format. Kindle apparently supports viewing PDFs directly, but it apparently isn't the best possible device for viewing PDFs.
I understand that most of the Pathfinder game books wouldn't work well as Kindle books, but I think releasing some of the mostly text game books, that are mostly background info, for ebooks would be great.
I've recently been trying to read up on all the world history and cultural descriptions, such as The Inner Sea World Guide, and I'd love to have all that text on my Kindle instead of the giant hardcover I have.
