Best option to read devanagari (indic) documents on Kindle 2
Hi
I recently purchased Kindle 2 and now trying to figure out best way to read PDF files which uses Devnagari unicode fonts or Indic fonts on it. I know Kindle 2 does not support unicode. I was thinking Kindle does show images, so can I convert the document in PNG images to read them on Kindle. Is there any tool available which can do this job. Also please let me know if you know any better option. Thanks |

For the images option, try PDFRead. For a discussion of K2 specific issues, see Kindle 2 and PDFRead 1.8.
