Open XML-based e-book file format using the .fb2 extension, created by a team led by Dmitry Gribov and Mikhail Matsnev, and released in 2004. It uses tags for the structural markup of file elements, which can include verses and quotations, instead of describing their appearance. This makes it easier to automatically index and convert the file into other formats. It is compatible with devices running on Windows, Linux, iOS, Tizen, Android, BlackBerry and Symbian. FB2-compatible programs include CoolReader and AIReader. FictionBook files can be edited using the FictionBook Editor for Windows.
