Different kinds of eTextbooks
If you report an issue with your eTextbook, you might be asked what kind of eTextbook you have.
- From an open eTextbook (in a browser) — Select your initials (top right) to open your account settings, then select Title info.
- From Pearson+ in a web browser — Select
for the applicable eTextbook. - From the Pearson+ app — Select an eTextbook then look for the type under Format.
“Integrated SMS eText” shows with the type, whether Bronte ePub, CITE, PXE, or PDF (from newest to oldest). Of these types, Bronte ePub might provide the greatest number of eTextbook features and PDF the least. PDF eTextbook pages match the print textbook pages exactly.
