Iliad Software idea
Well, this is not about a software running on the iLiad. Rather, it's about a computer tool that is able to print as pdfs iLiad-tailored doc/html files.
Sometimes I need to create pdf files from doc files to read them on the iLiad.
This takes me several steps: first, I increase the font of the document to make it readable on the iLiad (alternatively, I decrease the page area of the document); next, I print the file as a PDF. This second step also has several sub-steps, as I have to go to the PDFCreator advanced options and specify the horizontal and vertical dimensions.
Bottom line: creating PDFs from docs for the ILiad is a lengthy and cumbersome process. I know, the ILiad Companion software has a "Print" function which is easy to use - it uses the content of the clipboard to create a pdf tailored for the iLiad. Although the process is fast and easy, one does not have control over the font (a big Arial font). I would like to be able to customize the font (I prefer serif), or at least make it smaller. Did anyone think to develop a software to do this? Maybe this has been previously discussed on this forum, or maybe there are tools that can do this. If so, please forgive my ignorance and please point me to the relevant information. Thanks.
