Hello everybody,
you can mark Chinese characters while using the fbreader. With the adobe reader I find it impossible.
I have tried your dictionary marking single characters and opening the dictionary. Unfortunately, the highlighted character hardly ever came up (only once - probably a mere coincidence). Thank you for trying anyway.

I have simhei.ttf, simkai.ttf, AdobeHeitiSts.otf and AdobeMingStd.otf in the system\fonts folder. The pocketbook offers AR PL New Sung for Chinese Texts. And I have tried severel other fonts that I deleted afterwards. All seem to have had no effects on the browser. I guess it has something to do with the UTF-8 encoding of Chinese websites and that cannot be changed in the browser.
I allways find reading a Chinese epub on the reader an adventure. There are epubs that work fine with the adobe reader (apart from highlighting characters) but using the fbreader you will find only squares (even with the right font). With another epub it might be just the other way round. There are also some epubs that work fine with both readers.
Another feature I find rather strange: I use calibre to download Chinese newsfeeds and transfer those as epubs to my pocketbook. Then I change the setting to landscape mode so I have more characters in the table of content (=headlines). No problems so far, but when I turn off my device or close the epub and start it again, it has forgotten about the landscape mode and also about the page I had been on. I have no idea whether this is a pocketbook or a calibre feature.
But all this has nothing to do with the Chinese dictionaries, maybe we should open a new thread about 'Chinese on the pocketbook'.
Kind regards
Sabine
