Yup, I have that installed. It should have deDRMed the book on import. Looks like it didn't - or maybe it was encoding/font. I looked at plugin preferences to see if I need to feed it some sort of...

Japanese books on Kobo?

After seeing positive opinions about Touch HD, I've ordered a device. It arrived today, and after short testing, I've found couple of annoying bugs.

300ppi reader with some kind of sync?

My Kobo Aura HD just died, and my previous thread (https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=277034) didn't gather any answer, so I thought that I'll loosen the requirements.

Check your facts - epub is an open format and anyone can use it. Amazon's motive NOT to support it is most likely fact that it'd start canibalizing their sales.

I wonder whether they consider fraud situations where people buy books outside of their geographical region. A lot of people from mobilereads do that.

Right, after fiddling a lot with changing fonts and what not, I can't get a usable file. It's either blank past 25 page, missing national characters or all screwed up. Crap.
