epub reader on PC
I m looking for a epub reader which has a good text rendering as adobe digital editions.
The major pitfall of digital editions is that i can't double click a word to select, and this is essential to me coz i use lingoes a lot. Thanks for your help |

Um ... what do you mean by "lingoes"? Knowing that might help us.

The Barnes & Noble NOOK apps for PC & Mac are fairly good at reading epub, if you're willing to put up with the heavily branded NOOK and NOOKbook store.
N4PC doesn't support covers for non-B&N books, but I'm fairly certain the dictionary and Wikipedia lookup are quite convenient. It's well worth a look... |

If you use the Firefox web browser, I would recommend the EPUBReader add-on. I find it provides me with the most options when reading on a PC.

Mobipocket Reader
You can have similar function in mobipocket reader if you have a mobi dictionary. It support direct word lookup and you can install multiple dictionaries.
