SNB to RB conversion is the process of transforming an SNB ebook file—commonly used by certain e-reader apps for shared or note-enabled digital books—into the RB format, which targets reading devices and apps that accept RB ebooks. This conversion rewrites container structures, metadata, and embedded resources (text, images, CSS) so the content displays correctly in RB-compatible readers.
