That way they will not confuse the Kobo database.

The issue of why the Kobo software cannot deal with files that are read by other readers, the issue of their easily corrupted database, is not something to blame Koreader for. Or to expect some change in the Koreader code or functioning to fix the way Kobo functions.

Cause: my favourite charset (a widened version of Constantia) fix width (or non breaking, I haven't yet checked) space is displayed as ? in koreader, space in the native reader. I will check what is wrong and probably edit the charset, but meanwhile it means I read mainly in the stock application, until I am upset due to its slowness I switch to KOReader . Probably the solution is separate library. And browsing through books is easier in nickel (though the search feature is a big advancement.) And suspend consumption of KOReader seems more or less double of nickel (I don't understand why).

(I don't want any change in KOReader, I want to change it for myself. Or uninstall fmon and switch to start menu or advboot). First I try reallocating library in the weekend, and make a hidden one on the SD.
