You have 12 tabs open — articles you meant to read, tutorials you wanted to save, a long-form essay someone sent you. EpubPress bundles them all into a single EPUB file in seconds. It’s a browser extension, it’s free, and it works astonishingly well.
How EpubPress works
Install the extension from the Chrome Web Store or Firefox Add-ons. Once installed:
- Open all the articles you want to include — each in its own tab
- Click the EpubPress icon in your toolbar
- Select which tabs to include (it lists all open tabs)
- Click “Download”
EpubPress grabs each page’s content, strips out ads and navigation, and assembles everything into a clean EPUB with a table of contents. Each article becomes a chapter. The whole process takes about 10 seconds for 5-10 articles.
When to use it
EpubPress shines for:
- Research reading — collect 5-10 articles on the same topic into one ebook for focused reading
- Travel prep — save destination guides, itineraries, and tips before a trip
- Tutorial series — bundle a multi-part tutorial into one file
- Weekly reading list — save your weekend reading on Friday, read on your Kindle Saturday
The output EPUB works on any e-reader. Send it to your Kindle via Send to Kindle, sideload to Kobo, or read it on your phone.
What it can’t do
EpubPress extracts the main content of each page, but it can’t handle paywalled content, dynamic JavaScript-rendered pages, or pages that require login. For those, use your browser’s “Save as PDF” or a tool like Calibre’s web-to-ebook feature instead.
