The Fire and Graphic Novels

zebradude · 12-08-2011, 08:56 PM

I am wondering if I am the only one that is having a hard time reading the smaller text bubbles in some on the Graphic novels.

I hope with future updates they will allow a way to change the size of the pages???

If they would let me buy them on my 10 inch Acer tablet, I might be able to answer you.

Double tap the text bubble??

Just a guess

I read graphic novels using Perfect Viewer, with the Fire in landscape orientation. It's perfect. And Perfect Viewer has a feature that scrolls through the pages in 1/3rd increments which works really well. I actually prefer this to graphic novels I've read on the iPad using Comic Zeal.

I find ComicFlow on the ipad Pretty-Pretty nice. Perfect viewer is great for android though

I second the perfect viewers recommendation. Just be sure to do these:

1. Use the tollbox quick setup for "comics" (will make preference selections for you easier than hunting through their zillions of choices)
2. Check the box for reading left-to-right. (Most manga reads oriental style right to left so you have yo set this according to style/language of the graphic novel)

3. Before you open your first title, spend a goodly amount of time studying the touch zone map laid out on th pv s screen. This tells you what zone to touch to:

Zoom in
zoom out
Next page
Previous page
Open options
Menubar
Etc

Its been a recurring theme amongst us pv readers that we wish there were an easy way to call up this zone map again. So far the only way i know is to actually close all open titles. Its really just a growing pain... ultimately its just so easy and feature rich that other readers don't compare.
