JBC file formats?
Ok, seemingly the CHM is not supported in the march update.
I've thoroughly enjoyed the JBC so far, mainly as PDF and epub reader,but after some months playing around with it, I did find out some issues, One, it does not display all svg images correctly. Sometimes there's something off with the pictures, two, it does not display certain jpegs correctly, Sometimes the jpegs are not visible until you zoom out or in (as if the JBC never gets to load them) And lastly I found out it does not display chm files, eventhough many sites say it does! So I wanted to make a file list of what works,and what does not. ========================= So far on the march update: Working in good order: Epub works, internal hyperlinks supported, pictures supported PDF works, no hyperlinks supported, pictures supported, no border/margin removal Working but could be improved (mostly internal hyperlinks): lit works, very simplistic text zoom in out, pics supported txt works very simplistic (expected of txt) mobi works very simplistic, pics supported rtf works HTML works basically, no hyperlinks supported, pictures supported Should be working, but does not work: chm does NOT work zip archives do NOT work rar archives do NOT work DOC Ms Office DOC files do NOT work Are not working (company never meant FW to read these files): 7zarchives don't work CBR comic books don't work CBZ comic books don't work HLP MSDOS Help files don't work DOCX MS Office 200x files (or any other office file including excel, PowerPoint, etc...) don't work ODP ODT ODSAny open-office document including open office's power point DJVU Does not work ============================ if anything else please post and i'll test it out...(If I have the time) Last edited by ProDigit; 05-10-2012 at 01:40 PM. |

Can add that DJVU does not work but was not meant to.

CBZ and zip archives should work imho, because they use almost the same protocol as epub (zipped archive),so the device should be able to open them without extra license fees or so...
