It is appropriate for professional capture archives and controlled post-production pipelines.
FB2 at a glance
FB2
Convert to FB2 when targeting reading environments or libraries that explicitly support FictionBook, especially for prose-heavy works, personal ebook collections, or regional distribution where FB2 remains common.
It is useful when semantic text structure matters more than elaborate layout.
For wider global interoperability, EPUB is usually the safer target.
