Code:
[FeatureSettings]
FullScreenReading=true
There are problems with this mode, but I don't know how they will affect an image only kepub.
Is there any reason not to use CBR or CBZ? The Kobo devices support both formats including zoom on and rotate on the images. |
Kepub offers better organization on the ereader. I like the use of its metadata.
The FullScreenReading setting does not work. I still get the header and footer.
I was able to figure out how to get full screen mode in this two step process.
I don't know if there is an easier way.
Step 1: Covert the AZW3 to zip or PDF
