Hey.. just thought I'd mention...
Another great and convenient feature of Bluefire Reader (especially if you create ebooks.) Just set "Use Publisher's Formatting" in Settings and you can very quickly and easily see the book as the publisher created it. No "un-setting" of my own personal prefs and setting them back again. Nice! |

We'll think about that. EPUB3 will be nice for comics too. |

Sorry to hear that. I've just not been able to reproduce that on any device. Is it a variety of files? Or specific ones? We have an update coming in a few weeks, and maybe we'll get lucky and that fixes it. Lots of changes in both PDF and EPUB rendering in the update. PDF has more changes overall though.

Is there an update coming soon, Micah? The Stanza that Amazon has given us is broken in some areas, so we still need a decent replacement.

Yes, in weeks. but it is stuff we've been working on for many months, like better PDF reading, and better image handling in EPUB. The Collections, Brightness, Meta edit stuff is next.

The themes are great, although I find it somewhat difficult to use the sliders to get the right color; not sure what an alternative could be though; perhaps a direct entry RGB value as an option. If you could duplicate the "Sepia" theme that iBooks uses that would be fantastic, I can't quite get it with the sliders. Also, while it's great to have preset margins, if we had a bit more control as a custom margin setting that would also be great. Thanks for bringing us Bluefire! |

Upgrading to iOS5 blows away all the covers in all the books loaded with iBooks. The only way to fix the covers is to delete the books and reload them.

Plus that crappy blue "New" banner makes zero sense. Unread/in Progress/Read would make more sense. Haven't seen it blow away my library yet though. |

What are the downsides to the jailbreak fix? Can they be worse then my iPhone rebooting?
