E-text
An e-text (from "
electronic text"; sometimes written as etext) is, generally, any
text-based information that is available in a digitally encoded human-readable format and read by electronic means, but more specifically it refers to files in the
ASCII character encoding. E-text has the broad meaning of something electronic that represents words, a
binary (or
digital) version of a published work of text. Indeed, there are ASCII textbooks available. These are now referred to as, and the term is often used synonymously, an
ebook.The term e-text is used for the more limited case of data in ASCII text format, while the more general e-book can be in a specialized (and, at times,
proprietary) file format. An ebook is commonly bundled by a
publisher for distribution (as an ebook, an
ezine, or an
internet newspaper), whereas e-text is distributed in ASCII (or
plain text). Metadata relating to the text is sometimes included with e-text (though it appears more frequently with ebooks).

E-Text
Ein E-Text ist ein
Text bzw.
Dokument, das in elektronischer Form vorliegt. Als zukunftssicher gilt es, die E-Texte in einem plattformunabhängigen Format wie
SGML bzw.
XML zu speichern und zum Lesen die Texte in
standardisierten Formaten wie
HTML,
XHTML oder
PDF anzubieten; es gibt auch die Möglichkeit die Texte mit Hilfe von
Stylesheets (
CSS oder
XSL) darzustellen. Dabei sollte das Speicherformat der Texte auch zugänglich sein, da nur dies eine effiziente Be- oder Verarbeitung zulässt.

E-texto
Um e-texto (de "
electronic text") é, geralmente, qualque informação sob a forma de texto disponível em um formato codificado digitalmente inteligível pelo homem e criado por meios eletrônicos, mas mais especificamente refere-se a arquivos em formato texto
ASCII. E-textos tornaram-se populares graças às funcionalidades acrescentadas (como busca dentro do texto) e fácil portabilidade. Computadores de tipo Hand-held (como os
PDAs) permitem o armazenamento de grande número de e-textos. Esses dispositivos também permitem a leitura do e-texto em viagem mais comodamente do que sob a forma de diversas folhas de
papel.
