Is it possible to view images on a Kobo Mini?

[Poocini]

Hi All!

I've bought a couple of books recently for my Kobo Mini, and have found that, whilst there appears to be captions for photos within the books, the device doesn't display them.

Is there a way to display them? Or is the device unable to do it? Or is it simply down to the fact that the version of the book I've bought has had the pictures edited out?!?

Thanks.

Your mini should be able to display jpeg, png, gif and tiff images. There was an issue with one firmware revision where png images were not displayed but if you are on the latest version for the Mini (3.4.1), that should not be an issue.

Is this a book purchased from Kobo? If so, can you provide me with the URL to the book's page in the Kobo store. I can then grab a copy of it and have a look and see if it displays images at all - I would try iOS first as it's the platform I can most easily access - it could well be that it might have had them stripped.
