Manga is glitched?

Zombater · 08-23-2014, 06:20 AM

I'm reading right-to-left manga, Attack on Titan Volume 1 to be specific. There is a white gap on the right side and a part of the left side is cropped off. How can I fix this? Before suggesting any software, bear in mind I am unfortunate enough to own a Mac. I've heard about calibre or something a lot, yet IDK about that.

So you're reading this on a PW2. Ok... open the file (CBZ are ZIP files and CBR are RAR files) on the Mac and then open the image that has the issues with the default picture viewer on the Mac. If the image itself has issues, then perhaps you can edit it using GIMP or something like that.

Anyway, this is posted in the "E-Book Readers" section of this message board instead of the "Workshop" section.

Sadly many manga volumes available in Amazon store is badly formatted. No idea if Attack on Titan is one of them but fixing it might require some work.

I would suggest extracting all images with KindleUnpack and reprocessing them to MOBI once more with our Kindle Comic Converter.

If your source file is in CBZ format then just hit it with Kindle Comic Converter. It will sort out this mess as CBZ reader in PW2 is broken garbage.

Both solutions assume that images inside your source file are intact.

Aah, sorry 'bout placing this in the wrong section, but they're it's a folder with the extension .sdr and its filled with: AssetDownloadMeta.meta, B00CCOO1HA.mf, AuthorProfile.profile.B00CCOO1HA.asc, Attack on Titan 1_B00CCOO1HA.azw3f, Attack on Titan 1_B00CCOO1HA.azw3r, Attack on Titan 1_B00CCOO1HA.azw6 and EndActions.data.B00CCOO1HA.asc

Biggest one contain images.

No idea how amazon DRM is working on manga AZW files but I guess that Calibre + KindleUnpack plugin should extract images from it.
