Emulate eReader look
is there a reader application that kind of 'emulates' the look about how a book will look on an ereader? (Without the need to check ereaders and with presets for different eReaders)
This way I could check and tweak the look without putting it on my eReader and also can check and compare on other eReaders I don't have. Okok, maybe iPad excluded |

@Lady Fitzgerald: I'm not sure if that would be the best solution. I mainly came to this because the fact that Calibre for example offers different convert profiles for different readers giving the impression it makes some difference. I should read up on that.
@daffy4u: Great suggestion but being ePub focussed the Kindle falls outside my Euroean focus. I don't know about the Nook, does it support ePub? The mobi format is popular in the USA, but in Europe and Asia ePub has become the official standard. And due to Amazon not allowing other DRM providers next to theirs most European eBookshops seem to all have dropped support for mobi, focussing on ePub. (I hate format wars, and this seems more to be transformed into a kind of Geo-restricion) |

The Sony Book reader for a PC does simulate the size of the page.
