@ JSWolf
Call me paranoid but I don`t know, if I should attach files of an official release online... But after I ziped the epub and opened it, I found in the "styles"-folder 51 *.css files, some of them differs. PM for more... |

the "reset userdefined css-file" option solved all my problems (with the ZORK version for 350)

51 CSS files? Is this from the copy on your reader or the original copy before being put on the reader? |

first of all, I'd like to thank all of you who're responsible for the PRS+ customization. Reading PDF files on my son prs 650 feels great now! Well-done!
something I noticed - it's not really an issue, though perhaps it could be fixed: say I open a PDF file, select "zoom in" from the reader menu (and leave the text size set on "S" - both bottom of the screen on the sony), adjust the zoom + click on "lock" (top of the screen). It works great, particularly because PRS+ lets you drag the text up & down without having to unlock it every time. The thing is that - when I get to the end of any PDF file page, and want to turn page, I need to click on the "keyboard" (external to the screen) "<>" dedicated button. Now, if I click on "<" (go to the previous page), it's all right. If I click on ">" (go to the following page), the reader shows the beginning of the page I'm alread on for some 5/10 secs (the page looks half off screen), then the screen flashes and shows next page half of screen. The size is still as it I've zoomed it to, but I need to drag it back to fill up the screen. Any idea? Thanks! |

Hi All
New ZORK-Versions online. Some bugs have been removed, code partly rewritten. File for CSS-tags moved into /CSS/extern.css Cruzial point is the file 'extern.css'. Add new tags there to make more ebooks formatable. A. |

Hi Analogus,
the new version works on my 650. And the line-high etc. works now also on the tested epub (Eco, Friedhof von Prag), which did not work on the last version. (Also it seems to me, that the intensity of the effects differs on different books.) Thanx for your work and efforts! Scipio |

@Analogus
I've just updated to rev90 of your zork firmware and two issues are bugging me. 1) in books view, instead of marking new books, it marks already read ones with a tick and i can't figure out how to turn this off. nvm, figured it out :x 2) after pushing 'OPTIONS' button to display that popup menu thingie, everything except statusbar and said menu goes completely white, is this WAD? thanks, also, those Line-Height and Font-Size settings override my FontsAsInLRF.css file and revert me to the default Sony font. after reapplying it from the context menu everything's ok.

Hi all (incl. Scipio and lemko)
Intensity of effects: Yes, I know this behaviour. This has obviously nothing to do with the way the ZORK-Edition applies the CSS-formatting. It's a problem of CSS & Ebooks. I recognized this behaviour in various ebooks when applying CSS-files directly over options in 'normal' PRS+. And this behaviour is the reason for the stepping of the (fin-grained) font-size-setting option: the first stepps are very narrow, the last steps more wide to cope with this effect. If you have some idea or glue how to manage it with CSS-code - don't hesitate to inform us ;-) Overriding CSS-definitions: Yes, that could be the case. To make a long story short: 1) If problems/unusal results occur apply the formating once more. 2) If problems don't vaporize - reset CSS-formatting over options and apply settings again. 3) apply settings again even when options seems to be allready set. White screen: No, this behaviour is not intended. I presumeI know the reason (but I don't have this bug on my 350) and will bring an update (I think it has something to do with the compression of the icons...). Scipio - do you suffer this problem too? A. |

Thanks. I could not reproduce this (assumed) bug.

Did you test it with more than one PDF?
I cannot reproduce this problem on my reader. Some PDF's have huge time-lags when turning pages. Maybe this could be a reason. A. Last edited by Analogus; 04-27-2012 at 08:58 AM. |

Analogus you're actually right - I tried about twenty different PDFs - all articles - and the response varies from quick to kind of slow to very slow. They have only one thing in common: after zooming the page and dragging in down with the stylus to read it + pressing the page-forward button, the top of this very page is shown first. After that, the following page appears (zoomed though half off screen). If I zoom but do not drag the page down and press the page-forward button, this does not happen + the following page appears correctly centred...

imageraw:
I tried to reproduce your problem a second time but did not succeed. My PRS350 does not have this behaviour. Wether the option to preserve the position of the PDF when paging is set or not set. Sorry I cannot help. I do not think that this has something to do with your problem: but I use my own PRS+ - version which behaves different in various ways. In case of zooming in a push on the zpoom-button directly switches to the pan-mode without need to activate it with the'lock-button. Hi all: New version of ZORK-Edition online. Bug with non-transparent dialoges (thanks lemko for reply) removed. A. |
