I assume you're talking about creating one jpeg image for each page in a pdf book? If so, I'm not sure how that would be a step up from the pdf (that the kindle can read to begin with). Non-reflowable pdf vs non-reflowable jpegs... hmmm.

Welcome back by the way. We've been missing your "brilliant" ideas.
after studying png and jpg it seems too many of them cause freezes and slow action in the kindle.

thus war and peace would be a thousand pngs/jpgs.

i will not be reading war and peace anyway as i find russia to be a cold place.that was just an example.

What i really meant was not actually print the pdf but print it in a virtual sense and then then use a virtual OCR reader to read of the virtual print and then convert it to a reflowable user friendly format.


so virtual pdf printer prints out a file which OCR software will be able to "read" like an OCR reader and then reflow the text to a custom mobi file.

OCR stands for OPTICAL CHARACTER RECOGNITION.
