Hello everyone,
Greetings from Algeria,
I have recently purchased a new Kobo Clara BW. It looks impressive; I am reading books in epub format using the built-in software reader. The dictionaries work fine with the epub books, but when I make text files, or htm files on my pc and download them to my kobo, the dictionary window doesn't appear no matter how long I touch the words I keep pressing them!!
is this happening because the Kobo software treats the htm and txt files like image files? i.e. having no capability of OCR recognition? or is it because the Kobo signed a limited contract with the dictionary developers to allow those dictionaries to work only with officially bought books? What do you think? has this happened with you? and If you suggest any alternative for using third party dictionaries (in case they work with txt, and htm texts), I will be very grateful to you...(because I really need the dictionaries to learn language, and I use a htm and txt format a lot)
thank you in advance,
