Hi, can I use InDesign to merge ePub files into one document? If so, is there a place I can find a tutorial how to do this, please? Many thanks

Calibre can merge epub files using the EpubMerge plugin.

https://github.com/JimmXinu/EpubMerge

 

You will need Calibre as well, of course:

https://calibre-ebook.com/

 

Tutorial: https://www.howtogeek.com/168444/how-to-easily-merge-and-split-ebooks/

 

It is also possible to use Sigil, but the process is much more long-winded and involves unzipping epub files. Calibre is the simplest method.

 

PS this is impossible in InDesign.

FXL ePub or Reflowable ePub?

(Whichever kind you want you have to create them for that particular purpose from an InDesign document.)

There is no way to do that without the original InDesign documents.

What do you mean original docs? I have to convert pdf to epub in InDesign?
Sorry, I'm new to this.

You cannot use InDesign to convert a PDF to EPUB.
