Post How can we landscape periodicals in PW2 5.6.5?
Hi.

I daily download periodicals using calibre. This periodical takes the shape of periodical and not a normal book in kindle, which means i get list view as well as snippet view of the article, before i read in detail.

This periodical format doesnot give me an option to read in horizontal or landscape mode.

I was wondering if there is any extension or way out to read periodicals in landscape mode.

Maybe KOreader can do that, I don't think the stock reader can.

Also, Calibre might be able to reformat the documents for you to landscape.

I don't use either of the above myself, I am only guessing here.

I don't remember if there was also in 5.6.5, but in my 5.7.4.1, by clicking on "Aa" i can choose landscape mode.
However, i tried only with books

There is something it doesn't do?
Well, you got me on that one.
