KOReader: a document reader for PDF, DJVU, EPUB, FB2, HTML, ... (GPLv3)

[john4545]

I cant seem to open azw3 files.It is showing that there are files inside the folder but when I open the folder,no files are shown

@john4545: That's because AZW files (of any kind, be it DRM encumbered MOBI6, PDF or KF8) aren't supported.

supported yet or never?

[NiLuJe]

Definitely never if DRM encumbered, most probably never for unencombered ones.

TL;DR: Nope.

Just use the native reader application for azw files.

I'd be interested!

You will need to edit the file

frontend/ui/font.lua

There, you will edit

function Font:_readList(target, dir)

which is the function relevant to building the list of fonts. The new code follows:

function Font:_readList(target, dir)
-- begin hfpop
    -- *.ttf files in /usr/java/lib/fonts/
    local fonts_cjk = {}
    fonts_cjk["code2000"] = true 
    fonts_cjk["HYGothicBold"] = true 
    fonts_cjk["HYGothicMedium"] = true 
    fonts_cjk["HYMyeongJoBold"] = true 
    fonts_cjk["HYMyeongJoMedium"] = true 
    fonts_cjk["MTChineseSurrogates"] = true 
    fonts_cjk["MYingHeiSBold"] = true 
    fonts_cjk["MYingHeiSMedium"] = true 
    fonts_cjk["MYingHeiTBold"] = true 
    fonts_cjk["MYingHeiTMedium"] = true 
    fonts_cjk["SongTBold"] = true 
    fonts_cjk["SongTMedium"] = true 
    fonts_cjk["STSongBold"] = true 
    fonts_cjk["STSongMedium"] = true 
    fonts_cjk["TBGothicBold_213"] = true 
    fonts_cjk["TBGothicMed_213"] = true 
    fonts_cjk["TBMinchoBold_213"] = true 
    fonts_cjk["TBMinchoMedium_213"] = true 
-- end hfpop
    -- lfs.dir non-exsitent directory will give error, weird!
    local ok, iter, dir_obj = pcall(lfs.dir, dir)
    if not ok then return end
    for f in iter, dir_obj do
        if lfs.attributes(dir.."/"..f, "mode") == "directory" and f ~= "." and f ~= ".." then
            self:_readList(target, dir.."/"..f)
        else
            local file_type = string.lower(string.match(f, ".+%.([^.]+)") or "")
            if file_type == "ttf" or file_type == "ttc"
                or file_type == "cff" or file_type == "otf" then
-- begin hfpop
            local file_name = string.match(f, "(.+)%.[^.]+")
            if fonts_cjk[file_name] == nil then
-- end hfpop
                table.insert(target, dir.."/"..f)
-- begin hfpop
            end
-- end hfpop
            end
        end
    end
end

You will need to edit YOUR version of this file according to my additions.

Just FYI. Nexus 9, running 5.1.1

The latest build reliably fails, dialog pops up saying the app unexpectedly terminated.

The stable build works fine except it hangs every time if started from Caliber Companion. I have to force-stop the app.

If I open a pdf directly from it's built in file manager that works fine though it seems to be able to get into a state (not fully reproducible) where if I go back to the home screen and then click on koreader, it will similarly hang (black screen) but I have to clear data as well as force-stop to fix.

The "Zoom to fit content" is amazing, exactly what I was looking for. Thanks! I notice that it doesn't take note of whether the progress bar is visible at the bottom and so it can obscure the last line of text.

Thanks again.

Hey guys, any word yet if this will work on the "new and improved" paperwhite....??

Yea, I know it's early, just askin' is all.....

[hawhill]

I think so. Maybe, the device specific data needs a tad bit tweaking. But first - have it run third party code.

[Rickkins]

Cool. Turns out I really like this KOReader thing.

Thanks.

[donMaranzano]

Is share on facebook function is implemented?

[hawhill]

No.
(This forum insists on getting at least 5 chars for the message, but for the answer to the question at hand, two were actually enough...)

Kindle DXG here, I have installed MKK and KUAL, latest versions, I open KUAL, and then Koreader and choose file manager, I tried all three (ASAP, no framework, and regular), then it goes back to the home and I see "starting koreader" but nothing happens. When I choose no framework the kindle reboots but still nothing happens.
Am I missing something?
