create epub file in objective c - iphone

i am new to iPad development. I am making iPad applications. In my application i want to create an epub file using Xcode 4.2, is there any demo tutorial available for making ePub file using Xcode. I have searched in google but i havn't found any thing which starts from basic..
can any one give me basic ideas, how to start ??

I don't know any code examples which shows how to generate ePub in objective c, but ePub is pretty easy format. It's zip file with structurized content based on xml files http://www.jedisaber.com/eBooks/Tutorial.shtml
You can build your solution based on projects in other languages, like, in ex. Ruby ePub generator https://github.com/jugyo/eeepub or C# http://sourceforge.net/projects/epubhub/

iPhone .ipa and file extraction

I am writing an app for the iphone platform. My code is mostly C++ with some Objective-C code to interface with ios sdk apis. I am not very versed on iphone programming and this is my first app, so problem is that i need to read a binary file, using C++ code, containing some data but i don't kown how to do it. My concern is: can i use directly fopen/fread? Which path should i use? I come from Android development. The .apk is a simple .zip archive, so one just need to extract in memory the needed file and process it, or extract the file in a temporary directory and read it in the usual way, but i do not know how to to the same in the case of an iPhone application. Thanks.
I believe the core question you're asking has already been asked and answered. You want to read and write files, but aren't confident about how/where to do so: Write a file on iOS

SDK to Read PPT , xls and .doc file in iOS

In my application i need to launch ppt , xls, pdf files. i am sure, iOS Framework support to view PDF files without launching any other application, but is there any way to open ppt , xls doc , if yes please give me any pointer,
I believe, there should be some SDKs available , which can be integrated through an application and can make use of it.
If you just want to view the Office files, have a look at:
Document Interaction Programming Topics for iOS: Quick Look Framework.
Quick Look Framework Reference
Quick Look Framework supports a lot of file formats as you can see in the links above. It is available in iOS 4.0 and later.
You can also use UIWebView to display them. See Using UIWebView to display select document types.

iphone - Extracting ZIP files in iPhone App

I am aware of some third party libraries and open source libraries to extract ZIP files within iPhone application.
But I would like to know whether there are any default iPhone frameworks provided in SDK itself?
None that I know of. I have been using Objective-Zip and it seems pretty good for my needs. But I am deflating not inflating.
