Tolino forum requested

Dryhte · 02-22-2018, 09:05 AM

@the.powers.that.be:

Isn't it time to have a Tolino forum?

At least in Belgium, one of the major book stores is backing this e-reader and I've been looking into getting one. The fact that there was no mobileread forum about them actually scared me out of getting one from now

But since I found some people in the Tolino 4 HD thread knowledgeable enough about them, I think there's potential for giving the Tolino readers their own sub forum. (I hope you agree).

Same in Italy: ibs.it is one of the most famous bookstores and they adopted tolino.
I’m using it for more than 1 year and I love it. I prefer it compared to Kindle Voyage.
There is a forum for eBook readers that nobody knows and last message posted 3 years ago... :P
Tolino deserves a dedicated forum!

Meanwhile I've bought the Tolino and it works really well... But there's bound to be some hacking & tweaking we can do

maybe other owners can add their 'vote' to this thread to show support?

I've been reconsidering this

there's not much to be discussed about the Tolino since it just works - very well. Okay I'd still be interested if someone knew some clever hacks, but even in its vanilla state it's a really good, trouble free e-reader.

If there was a hack that made Tolinos handle embedded fonts correctly, I might consider buying one. At the moment, if you choose any font but Publisher Default, the chosen font will override all fonts embedded for initials etc., which is a dealbreaker for me.
