Reading article and essay on eReader
Sometimes when there are long articles / essay / writings online that I want to read, I rather make them into txt. file and read them in ereader (now in heaven). Coz the brightness of the computer screen make myeye feel tire and ache when I read long.
Anyone do this too? Last edited by bookmeal; 09-16-2011 at 11:40 PM. |

This sounds wonderful. I don't have kindle, I usually just copy and paste long news / article into txt. file and then read them in the eReader.

If your reader can handle PDF files, you can get any of several free PDF print drivers and just print the web page to that.
And if I'm not mistaken, Caliber can convert from HTML to any common ebook format. |

I've done that with PDFs and articles for classes before. I don't do it quite a lot, because on some of my work stuff, they're 2500+ page manuals and my 505 doesn't offer really much in the way of search options.
