Final version
Here comes the final version. Changes recommended by Charleski have been made.
A lot of thanks to him. |

It reads fabulously here in my PB360. If you could bring more comics here I'd be glad, for they read superbly. However, I wonder how manga would fare like...

I wrote a program to do all of this automatically. It's free and open source, and available here:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/comictoepub/ It automatically crops, rotates, and cleans up the images. I use it to read comics on my little Sony and 99% of them look fantastic. |

Karming you like a beast. It reads fabulously in the MM!
Have you tried it with big files btw? Last edited by Logseman; 03-18-2010 at 12:28 PM. |

Big files
Quote:
It should work fine with big files. The images in the CBR/CBZ get resized to whatever resolution you specify (thats what the Max Size box does) and doesn't really care about how many pages are in the comic. The only down side is that if comics have small fonts then it can be hard to read on my little Sony. I've tested it on A LOT of comics (a couple of hundred) and at least 95% of them come out looking nice. |

One last small issue - Calibre had problems reading the å in the title when I added it. I opened the opf file in Notepad++ and selected 'convert to UTF-8', saved it and that seemed to fix the issue. Whatever editor you use for ePubs, make sure it's operating in UTF-8 mode. |

When you open it in Calibre you see the images fine, but not at all on your Sony? Strange. All I can think is that maybe the images are corrupt or in a format your Sony isn't likeing. Send me a PM with your email address and I can have a look for you. Win7 should work fine-- I've been using it on Vista 64. |

I'm looking at this with Stanza on MacOS X desktop. I see one frame and the TOC but the latter isn't hot in the sense that clicking on a TOC item does anything.
