In case you missed my previous post: CoolReader 3.

Excuse me, we are discussing a new potential format here, and not my readers. I listed the potential goals and the reasoning behind it, but you are trying to insert veiled insults instead of responding on the topic.

The purpose of E-book format is to provide the user with a predictable experience. That means we cannot rely on unpredictable things like browser-compatible layout and full CSS support. The books are simple things and should be done in a simple way.

I've never said anything like this. I said none of the readers could display the poem as ADE did (or FF EPUB plugin, which is irrelevant to my devices). Some of the readers failed to open the file, the others did not.

Both desktop and Android versions failed to load the file. The file was taken from the corresponding post in the workshop section and has the id urn:uuid:1a16ce38-82bd-4e9b-861e-773c2e787a50.
