BTW, in case anyone wants to monitor new releases, you can subscribe to the RSS feed of the PDFRead file releases on Sourceforge.

ashkulz, any way to add another option for converting pdf to lrf? What I mean is splitting one page into three even parts in landscape mode. I find that in some larger pages, the legibility of two halves is still not good enough.

I think that using the landscape mode (make as many pages as needed) should work for you. It doesn't help if you make it 3 even pages, as ultimately the aspect ratio will determine the width (because making it 3 pages increases the height, not the width).
If you have any suggestions, please post them (with some example PDFs, if you can). |

I like the batch conversion very much. The computer just continues running to turn pdf files into lrf files without human attention and without error disruption. The next concern I have is about the aspect ratio: how to enhance legibility while still efficiently utilizing reader screen space? i.e., adjusting the aspect ratio to split pages to meet the demand.
The screen display dimensions of the reader: portrait: 4.54 x 3.47 in (115.4 x 88.2 mm), 754 x 584 pixels landscape: 6.09 x 4.41 in (154.8 x 112 mm), 1012 x 784 pixels |

ashkulz, yeah, very glad to chat with you here. You can download a Sony Connect Reader Software here to test for PDFRead. It works exactly the same as the Sony Reader Screen. I myself test on this too.

ashkulz I did find a bug. When I put pages 10 to 15, it starts at 10 and goes up to the end of the book (did that for a preview).
Btw, a preview button, where you could choose a page to see how it looks before converting in .lrf could be a good thing |

Also, entering the same page as start and end will effectively give you a preview. That's why I didn't add a seperate preview option... |
