Output profile Calibre Question

Stormig · 06-11-2017, 07:33 PM

I am new here, and apologize in advance if my question has been covered elsewhere, but I did not find it.

I am currently reading on a Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4, screen resolution 1600 x 2560 pixels (~359 ppi pixel density). I use Calibre to convert to epub and usually select output profile of Nook HD+ (1280x1920). I then read in Moon+ Reader Pro. Things appear to be alright.

My main question is, should I actually be using (generic) Tablet output profile, or is it possible to create my own custom profile to match my tablet, or isn't that an issue?

Thanks for your time. I wish I had a fraction of your intelligence when it comes to these things. Your forums are a wealth of knowledge and have helped me much, but I just couldn't find the answer to this one.

Profile mainly sets the Graphics size (needed for smaller screens). Generic Tablet is full (original image) size, so Generic should be perfect.
