Touch Mangle (Or similar) for Nook?

Haloman800 · 12-01-2011, 10:51 PM

Hi, I used to have a Kindle, it broke =(, but I was lucky enough to pick up a $79 nook touch on Black Friday! I love (nearly) everything about the Nook better.

I enjoy reading Manga, & I used Mangle on the kindle to format Manga.. I was wondering if there's anything like it for the Nook? Thanks!

Nothing on the such for the nook. I used to print manga in pdf and read it.
But if you root it (try XDA-developers forum, look for minimaltouch root), you can try several manga readers (android comic viewers, mango, etc), which read both cbz and cbr, and other formats.

Mangle is an app that converts comic book formats (CBR, CBZ, folder of images) to mobi format for Kindle. You can do the same thing using Calibre, and convert to PDF or EPUB for the Nook to read.

Mangle appears to have a few more features, such as the ability to re-order pages, but you can do the same (though more tediously) by opening the CBR/CBZ/CB7 container file (CBR == RAR, CBZ == Zip, CB7 == 7Zip) and renaming files appropriately so that they're in numerical order.

Use Perfect reader for CBR/CBZ. It is pretty good. I think you need to root your Nook Touch.
