PDB (Palm Database) was the primary ebook format for Palm OS devices and the Palm Reader application. It was one of the earliest widely-adopted portable ebook formats, thriving during the Palm PDA era of the late 1990s and 2000s. PDB files store text with basic markup and are notable for their compact size. Although Palm OS is long defunct, many classic ebook titles from that era survive only in PDB format, making conversion to modern formats essential for continued access.
Converting PDB to RB involves parsing the proprietary PDB binary structure and reconstructing the text and metadata as a RB file. Our conversion service uses Calibre, the gold-standard open-source ebook management tool, ensuring that text encoding, chapter markers, and embedded assets are faithfully transferred. The converted RB file retains the original book's content and structure for use on compatible devices.
RB (Rocket Book) is the format for the RocketBook e-reader, a pioneering device from 1998. Converting to RB is a specialized preservation task for collectors and digital historians who maintain original Rocket eBook hardware. The format has very basic styling capabilities and limited character encoding, so only simple text-based content converts cleanly. Most practical conversion workflows would target EPUB, MOBI, or PDF instead.
RB is a legacy format primarily for specific historical hardware. Verify your target device supports RB before converting. For modern devices, EPUB or MOBI are better choices. Our conversion engine processes PDB to RB entirely in the cloud — no software installation needed. Files are deleted from our servers within 24 hours of upload.
