I have always found your moderation fair and polite. Thank you for that.

Though I have never delt with .lit files, I researched and found some that were DRM free. I downloaded one and pulled it up on my PEZ.

There was one zoom, the original vertical which was readable, though tiny, and one horizontal, larger text. The bookmarks did work, the catalog did work, I don't know about hyperlinks as the books I downloaded was fiction.

The blurriness of my pictures is purely due to my camera not focusing on close objects. I took them as high of resolution as I could so I can scale down to the required size and still show details.

The zoom, horizontal, did maintain the centering and indentation, which is lost on PDFs, and possibly other formats.

I hope these pictures answer some questions for you.

I am very happy with my PEZ, though it is the only device I have used. There are areas to be improved, and I'm confident that between Astak and Jinke, they will address them.

Enjoy,
AJ


PS I just noticed on the attachement instructions, I could have higher resolutions, if you would like I could recopy either of these shots in the higher resolution. Let me know.


Thank you for the kind words about my moderation.

Also, thank you for the photos. To me, the interpretation of .Lit files looks fine. I can live (for now) without the use of Chapter links, if that's one of the shortcomings, one that will be hopefully addressed in firmware updates.

However, I don't think I can live with every two paragaphs (for example) having split sentences and split words.

I read almost exclusively fiction, so any problems would appear to be minimized, at least in the examples you've provided.

Again, thank you for these photos.

I may just go ahead and order the white unit - before the end of the month, if I want to take advantage of the savings. (I wonder how long it would take to arrive in Peru?)
