The expression "e-book begins with an e, as we have ever explained, electronic means. It is an "electronic book", therefore.But the book can mean two different things, as in:
* I've dropped a book on the floor
* I have written a book
In the former case one refers to the mainland ( "Set of many sheets of paper or other similar material that bound, form a volume"), and the second the content (scientific, literary or any other extension volume sufficient to form, which can be printed or other medium, "the two are definitions of the latest edition of the dictionary of the Academy). The call, to differentiate, book1 and libro2
And sometimes, no one knows what exactly one speech:
* I like this book ... (while she caresses)
Well, in the field of electronic publishing can do the same, or even more complicated:
* An e-book1, or electrónico1 book is "dedicated device, ie a device that someone has made to serve only to read books electrónicos2. Is "refillable bottle", which we have ever spoken.
e-book1 Italian Myfriend
An e-book2 or Email2 book is the work we read in an electronic device.
The books usually have proprietary formats electrónicos1: a play (or book Email2) purchased for a model can not be read in another. Today there are various models in different stages of implementation: links.
Electrónicos2 books, not only read in books electrónicos1 but also on devices are also suitable for other things such as:
a computer: here is a title displayed on the screen of a computer:
a calendar, digital assistant, pocket PC, or as we like to call:
The Importance of beeing Ernest, by Oscar Wilde, in Microsoft Reader format, in a diary Compaq
Email2 But a book is always a file (which has been an editor on the network, or we buy in a virtual library), and got out or downloaded to your computer, inside which has about this painting:
The archive of The Importance of beeing Ernest: the second from the right
To convert one of these files into something readable programs are readers, for example, Adobe PDF eBook Reader or Microsoft Reader (links). These programs make a set of data into a readable book, sometimes a classic look familiar:
A Rattle of Pebbles, essay published by the Corporation in Adobe BookVirtual
The programs enable readers of the books pages electrónicos2 can happen, and sometimes underline and score. They usually give the possibility of the reader set the size or body text. But they also have systems that deal can not be read if not paid, which prevent a device installed on a work pass to another, and so on. As in the world of software, usually a work created for a system can not read another. Formats are read-oriented screen rather than printing the work.
But there are general purpose programs that can run as software readers, for example: browsers or Internet browsers:
A nineteenth-century work in the Virtual Library Miguel de Cervantes
An Internet browser program works reads coded in HTML, the language of the Web. Set the page to the desired size or change the font size. The works in this format is open to anyone the pass to another reader, print or computer change. Many individuals and INTITUCIONES in the network make works freely available to the public: links.
Finally, electrónicos2 books that have a virtual existence, as files that saves the author or publisher, until the moment a reader wants to buy one, and then printed and bound. These are called instant books or print on demand: links.
