And if you save it as a JPG, the system automatically refreshes, so it appears in your list of pictures!

Sincerely,
Ben.

Many thanks for this!!! I will compile and test it as soon as I can the next days and give you a proper feedback.

Hi TJ27, thank you for the feedback. The first point I'm already working on, but it turned out to be a tricky one, so I haven't found the proper way to fix it yet.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by the second point. Could you explain it a bit further?

books\Piers Antony\Series2\book6.pdf

The Author List addon doesn't actually use folders to distinguish files. It just goes through the entire book cache 1 by 1, and distinguishes the books by the author field. But for it to work correctly, the author field has to be exactly the same, so no extra spaces, or any other (invisible) characters that might be different. Are you sure that is the case here?

/edit: fix for deleting books opened from Author List just pushed to repository.

Looking at these numbers, by the way, it seems to make sense that the 950 is the one having the most problems...

Good catch.

I guess this might give your friend the incentive to build her own PRS+ development build?

I'm afraid it will give her an incentive for asking me to build her a development build

No problem with that, my builds are personalized in some way

Hi !!
I have a question
I managed to customize my PRS-505 with my favourite fonts for LRF.

If I load an epub with no embedded fonts and no stylesheet... What font should it display? the old sony font, or the new one?

I was hoping it would display the new one, but my tests so far say I'm wrong...

Mark Nord · 11-24-2011, 11:16 AM

yolan

somewhere in PRS+Settings I think it's Bookviewer you will find "EPUB userCSS "or something like this (no device nearby to check), set it to "FontsAsInLRF"

open another epub, change back and your fonts should be there.

yolan · 11-24-2011, 11:25 AM

Thanks Mark.
I knew about that CSS but thougt it was just used to override epub's own .css

I thought that if no fonts or css were embedded, you would get the "new" default fonts without the need to use "FontsAsInLRF"...

Maybe this was the behaviour in earlier versions, when we used igorsk flasher to replace sony's fonts? Can you confirm, just to satisfy my curiousity...

Thanks
