How to Open an Ebook in ISO Format
When you download an Ebook in ISO format, you aren't downloading a file type that can be opened and viewed by normal means. An ISO file is actually an image of a CD or DVD that has been duplicated with all of its contents compressed into one file. You can use most retail disc burning software to burn this ISO file to a CD or DVD to recreate the original disc. When you do this, all of the files that were compressed into the ISO will be present on the disc, and you will be able to open your Ebook.
