Yes Dorothy there is a way to convert Zinio to pdf...
I do not know the exact method but I have encountered converted magazines which still retain the Zinio tags.
They appear to be produced by TeAM YYePG. email to: yyepg@msn.com. Zinio magazines are cumbersome, a little less so when you turn off the page turning animation. Having pdf files with thumbnails and bookmarks I think is more practical. Reading lengthy text, even on a good quality screen like an iMac, is a chore, but these magazines can make excellent references when heavily illustrated with tutorials like some of the better British magazines such as Computer Arts and 3D World. |

Yeah, I read about a method the other day, but this was pretty much work. You basically have to print every page into a PDF, join them afterwards and edit set the tags again.... someone seem to have pretty mucht time, though.
...and if I remember right, you can't even print in some mags. . |

Page flipping effect in Zinio Reader
hii everyone,
currenlty i'm working on a project similar to zinio reader(My domain is VB.net).i've done a page turning effect but its entirely different from zinio reader. In zinio, the page turning starts with a curve at the top and bottom corners.but in my reader, there's no such curve, jus flipping a flat edge. i heard that zinio used directx for the page turning effect. i am really newcomer to Directx. can anybody help me this problem.i hope i'll get a positive reply very soon best regards kannan m ambadi |

Can't really help, but here is a flash version of pretty nice turning effect. Perhaps you can find a tutorial explaining this routine or get the actionscript out of it for studies.

Follow Ret's steps. You can use one of the world's most powerful OCR tools like Readiris Pro to convert it to a text PDF or word file. Then, you can change it to any format your mobile reader allowed. And, you can edit the text as you wish.

Just a question to the publisher of that design magazine.
How many subscriptions of possible readers have you lost because of zinio? |

I see it has been years since anyone addressed Zinio. I just found out that my library offers magazines in this format, so I am looking into it. I installed the current reader, which is an Adobe AIR application in a Windows virtualbox. I signed on and downloaded an issue of the magazine to check it out.
I can of course read it in my virtualbox reader, but I would prefer to be able to read it on my kindle 3 keyboard. Doing a bit of file searching shows that each issue of the magazine is stored as a series of .swf and .jpg files named pageX.swf and pageXY.jpg along with an init.xml and a view.xml in a sub-directory. Is there a way to convert this into a MOBI/AZW3 file to read as I prefer? Dave |

1. Wrote a Autohotkey(freeware) script to save defined screen area to png on PrintScreen.( Yes - You have to navigate the pages to printscreen ) 2. Used ipdf (Freeware) to generate the PDF from the images. Glad to share it(my script) with anyone interested. I just need time to remove all additional functionality in my script. |
