View Full Version : Bible, King James Version, 03-Feb-2008 Deputy-Dawg 02-03-2008, 10:11 PM The attached .zip file contains a pdf version of the King James Bible that is designed to overcome some of the TOC limitations of the Sony Reader. As it was designed for a specific platform I can make no representations as to its suitability on any other platform. And since I have no other platform to check it on I probably be unable to address any platform specific problems.

It works very well on the Sony Reader and is the best implementation of the Bible I have seen and used so far. Easy to get to a book and chapter. Using the Menu key its only a second or two from the TOC to jump to another book. Very good! badgoodDeb 02-05-2008, 07:07 PM As expected, no links on the Kindle. Drat -- I was so hoping it would just "work"! The content looks fine once past the indexes. The indexes themselves are in an odd shuffled order. I had to look hard to find Psalms -- it was 3rd or so on the list of Old Testament books :) But since it didn't link to anywhere in the text, the index didn't really make any difference (order not withstanding!). Deputy-Dawg 02-05-2008, 07:39 PM Which would suggest that the PDF reader on the Kindle does not honor the standard tags used by Adobe in Acrobat. But without a Kindle there is simply no way I can properly access the difficulty. badgoodDeb 02-06-2008, 12:34 PM Now that I think about it - I recall someone here testing with his Kindle, and deciding that the converter for Word DOC files *does* preserve links (http web links, at least) while the PDF converter does not. kbarnsda 02-19-2008, 01:51 AM HUGE thanks DD. I was hoping I had made the right choice between Sony or Kindle. The 505 and this forum are a great combo. I took a gamble on folks coming up with alternative ways to get info on the reader. I was a little disappointed with how long it took me to move around in the Bible with the Sony version. Thanks again for work. EKB |
