Comics on PP

I mean, the PDF comics display nice, bu the text is toooo small to read. And the zoom function does not increase the size.

Is this normal?

Work around?

Thanks all.

This was a disappointing discovery ...

Thanks

ps*** would a 6" astak display comics with large enough text to read?
Dear Jim:

I work for Astak; but I know very little about comics except printed. However. I do know that a PDF is little more than a photograph of a page. You cannot zoom it. You should be able to rotate the picture to horizontal view. When in the book, hit the large "OK" button. When the menu comes up hit #6 for "rotate".

Others on here know how to use Calibre to change the format. That might help some.

About the 6 inch... it would help a bit certainly but I think you would still have the problem. Remember, the extra 1 inch is measured diagonally so it is not that much. The EZ Reader PLUS 6 inch will be coming out in about a month. That will have 16 level gray scale and may help noticeably on color clarity.

There IS a 9 inch due. That would really be optimum. But it uses a SIPix screen and all SIPix screens are delayed. It could be three months or more.

Hopefully, others on here will jump in and give you better advice!
