Buggins, Market alerted me to the update, and this version works without the strange, miniature writing that I had. I have no idea what's happened, I simply opened a proof job and the font was where it should be at. So thanks!

Hi Buggins, any thoughts to making it easier to increase/decrease font size? I do like the moon+ reader's option to increase/decrease font size by flicking right edge.
As someone who is at an age where reading with my glasses on and off requires adjustments of font size, this would be a great function to have. Cheers |

Accidental flicking what causing 3-10 seconds of reformattign could be annoying. But assignment of zoom in/out function to key or tap action is easy to implement. Would it be enough? |

Just switched!
I came to this thread, read some bits, downloaded Coolreader, FBreader and Aldiko. Opened books in all of them. Tasted them.
Cool reader was cooler than Icecream and has all features any book reader would "LOVE" to have! It's the best reader! I have permanently switched to CoolReader. Can't be more satisfied. Last edited by Nexutix; 01-21-2011 at 07:39 AM. |

So, I decided to try this out again to compare against FBReader and Aldiko again. New comments!
1: You added dictionary support for ColorDict! This was another excellent feature of FBReader that was lacking. Thanks! 2: Being able to assign touch actions to the 3x3 grid is simply genius. I'm hooked on it. 3: Page breaks seem to be working much better now. I still have the occasional book that doesn't have a page-break before the chapter, but I'm sure that's just a CSS issue that I'll have to look into. Overall, I'm quite happy with the formatting. 3: Footnote/Endnote/Links: We're almost there. Links still ignore anchors, so they always go to the beginning of the html file. Most authors create a page per endnote, so in most cases it's okay. I have to use the "Back" function since the "return" link will always take me to either the beginning of the chapter or the beginning of the book. On a happier note, I really like that you follow links with a long-press. Aldiko and FBReader are frustrating if the link is on the margin, as it'll usually turn the page instead of follow the link. It's a toss-up between the two. Really, the only remaining issue for me is following inline links. Get that fixed, and I'll happily switch and grab me a bronze or silver edition! A couple references here on inline footnotes/endnotes: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=85997 https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=61913 http://www.epubbooks.com/blog/183/cr...-epub-document Thanks! - Jim |

Hi I have a Galaxy Tab, but have i understand this right.
Coolreader can´t be used for Pdf files, I borrow free books from the Library - now I use Aldiko, but can´t change the size of the letters. |

For Library ebooks, try Overdrive Media Console: http://www.overdrive.com/software/omc/ For most everything else CoolReader is worth considering. |

I have hundreds of ttf files stored in the fonts folder on my SD card. Unfortunately it's causing the app to crash as soon as it opens. Is there a fix for this? Sorry if its been mentioned before.
Update: Nevermind. I just deleted a hundred or so and now it's back to normal. Last edited by Tess89; 01-22-2011 at 06:40 PM. |
