EPUB 3: A Foundation For the Future
The trick is to make sure we're not creating fragmentations. We're not creating a second format with EDUPUB. We're just creating some specializations and best practices for how to use EPUB 3 to effectively deliver this next generation content. And we expect there to be similar profiles for EPUB 3 in other industries. For example, until now the digital magazine world has been dominated by relatively proprietary formats and the continuation of print replicas or page-flippers. They just take a PDF experience and maybe stick a video or simple interactivity "over the glass" of the PDF page.
