DBK to FICTIONBOOK conversion is the process of transforming digital book files in the DBK format (a proprietary/ebook container used by some readers and publishing tools) into the FB2 (FictionBook) XML-based ebook format designed for structured storing of fiction metadata and text. This conversion extracts text, images and metadata from DBK and maps them into FB2’s tag-based structure so the book can be read in apps and devices that support FictionBook.
