As per FangornUK's request, comiclrf has been merged into calibre. You can access it from the command line using the command comic2lrf
It has also been integrated into the GUI, so you can do all the usual conversion/bulk-conversion operations on CBR/CBZ files. Note that the code is a complete re-write, so there are probably still bugs. |

I'm checking out a little of the first part of the Watchmen right now using this conversion Thank you!
I think this is great so long as you read comics where color is not integral to the story. Black and white manga is probably very workable. I just read my first comic on the reader and I'm really excited. This adds a whole new level of material for me to get lost in. Woop woop! I just started reading my first manga ever (pback or ebook) and it looks absolutely amazing on the reader. Last edited by jakewastaken; 08-12-2008 at 09:01 PM. |

The comiclrf is simple and great!
I can convert comic with good quality output on the reader. But I face a problem that the chinese title cannot be shown on the reader. Does comiclrf only support english title ? |

I'm not sure about Chinese, probably not. Have you tried the Calibre version of ComicLRF (comic2lrf), that version has now replaced this older version.

One more question.. can I specify the page order (from Right to Left) when splitting a single large image into 2 images during the conversion ?
The default direction is split page from left to right which is opposite to japanese comic page order |

So, for the record, has development on the stand-alone script now halted and is FangornUK maintaining the integrated version or are you?

We're both maintaining the new version My calibre wide development policy is to accept patches from anyone (with a little review). But ultimate responsibility for maintaining the code base is mine.

Landscape mode
Hello, firstly I want to thank you for your program. It's great!
I suppose that your tool converts the images directly to size of the Sony Reader screen on portrait mode. Sometimes the text of the comics is almost unreadable in portrait mode and if you rotate to landscape the resolution is too low to read confortably. Could you add an option to convert to landscape size? |

Opsy, I don't think it's possible to do that - I've tried to find a way to do it but I think the Reader just won't work that way.

I've another request - I would like a commandline switch to set a custom cover image when creating the lrf file. I've noticed some irregularly-sized first images can sometimes upset the Sony reader, although Calibre and lrfviewer handle them just fine. Plus it is nice to be able to set your own title page.
