Info files are created from Texinfo source files. You can use the same source file to make a printed manual or produce other formats, such as HTML and DocBook.

The `makeinfo` command converts a Texinfo file into an Info file; `texinfo-format-region` and `texinfo-format-buffer` are GNU Emacs functions that do the same.
