CBR

CBRIN

CBR stores comic pages the same way CBZ does, one image per page in reading order, except the archive is compressed with RAR instead of ZIP. It was among the first containers collectors used for scanned comics, so older libraries and long-running series are often still filed this way. RAR packs those pages a little tighter, at the cost of needing software that can unpack RAR at all. Upload a CBR here when you want the pages moved into something your current reader handles.

PDB

PDBOUT

PDB started life as the file container for Palm OS handhelds and became one of the first practical ways to carry novels in a pocket. The name covers several book layouts packed inside that container, PalmDOC and eReader among them, each holding the text, light formatting and bookmarks. Palm devices disappeared long ago, so a .pdb book usually surfaces from an old backup or memory card. Run it through the converter to get EPUB, AZW3 or PDF that a current reader will open.
