Once again, thank you for taking the time to reply to me and for giving me the needed information.

It seems that each of the two dictionaries that I want to move into Stardict has only one format that the conversion program will support; .ifo in one and .dsl in the other dictionary. Hence, I assume that this is not doable.
Hi pzack.

One of the dicts (the .ifo one) is already in stardict format and will work as is in KOReader as long as you follow the wiki: https://github.com/koreader/koreader...l-a-dictionary

The other one is in ABBYY Lingvo DSL. Sent me a PM and I can help you to convert that to startdict, if you wish.

And can you recommend an ereader with the android OS and with a 7inch to 8 inch screen-if Goldendict will work with android of course-otherwise I will just use the Kobo and stardict.
I think you'll get better answers in the android subforum, where people can give you feedback about different android ereaders and the behaviour of the goldendict app in android.

I cannot recommend a single android ereader. They're broken by design, made by fishy companies and full of quirks and security holes.

The ones I know that are not that bad are Tolinos and Nooks and they're based on very old android versions and heavily underpowered compared to the fishy ones. So I can't recommend them either.
