{{todo|Beware, this doesn’t fit the current state of export files as of January 2015!}} < [[Export]] | [[ePub|New ePub docs]] > == Minimal example == A minimal example file would be: <texcode>\setupbackend[export=yes,xhtml=yes] \mainlanguage[de]\language[de] \setupexport [title={A nice book}, author={John Doe}, firstpage={huhn.jpg}, ] \starttextHello world!\stoptext</texcode> Please note, that a cover image is part of a valid epub file, therefore you should provide one even in the most minimal case. It is called huhn.jpg in this case. Make sure it is in the same directory as you tex file. Now you have to call the script to produce the epub <texcode>mtxrun --script epub --make test_00.specification</texcode> assuming that the minimal example tex file is called test_00.tex == More information == ConTeXt has preliminary [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EPUB epub] support starting from [[Context 2011.05.18 | current 2011.05.18]].Some problems were fixed end of August 2014, don’t use an older version!

To enable the export backend, depending on your needs, one of the following lines has to be included at the beginning of the document (before <{{cmd>|starttext</cmd>}}).

''For making an epubWhen using a css file, you need images are supported using an xhtml exportextra css file <code>*-images.css</code>. Images with suffix <code>pdf</code> are remapped to <code>svg</code> but <code>png</code> and <code>jpg</code> are passed on.'' You can add metadata using the following command:

<texcode>\setupexport [title={A nice book}, author= cld-mkvi ={John Doe}, firstpage={huhn.jpg}, ]</texcode>

ExampleYou can also hook css into the output, see thread:[http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2011/058907.html ntg-context]. The distribution has a test file <code>export-example.tex</code>. This file exports conforming:

[export=cld-mkivexport-exportexample.xml, xhtml=cld-mkivexport-exportexample.xhtml, css={cldexport-example.css]</texcode> This file shows some of the possibilities. You will notice that it is a rather normal context file. When the file is processed, you can create an epub file with:  <texcode>mtxrun --script epub -mkiv-make export-example</texcode> == Additional tagging ==  You can mark sections that don't need to be exported:  <texcode>\startelement[ignore]  titlepage makeup  \stopelement</texcode> You can also add data:  <texcode>\settaggedmetadata[name=Me] \startchapter[title=..css,mathml.css}] ....\stopchapter

This will create an ''oeps.tree'' folder with an ''oeps.epub'' inside it.When pdf images are used and no suitable svg alternative is present inkscape will be used to create the svg file.
