Book Reader: viewing EPUB and FB2 files in a dedicated reader

In ONLYOFFICE DocSpace, system plugins can be enabled by the owner and administrators. Once enabled, the plugins are available to all users.

1. Go to the DocSpace Settings -> Integration -> Plugins.
2. Click the toggle next to the Book Reader plugin to activate it.

To start working with the plugin, it is not needed to change the default settings. To view the plugin metadata, click on the gear symbol next to the Book Reader plugin.
