Page turning/scrolling for manga/comics

Leiv · 12-24-2025, 09:08 AM

I have a kindle 4 non touch, I recently jailbroke it and have koreader on it, but I can't figure out how to make my manga turn correctly. I have them in .cbz files. They scroll downwards, which would be fine, but the reader scrolls a bit less than a full page offsetting the pages, making it awful to read some panels. I did make sure to resize the images for my resolution (600*800), but it's not turning correctly.

Just to clarify, the first page shows correctly and fits on the screen, it just doesn't scroll how I want it to and can't for the life of me find settings to change it.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

In the bottom menu, select Page Crop 'auto' (2nd tab), Fit 'full' (3rd tab), and View Mode 'page' (4th tab).

Honestly I've never really used my kindle or koreader ever, so I didn't even know there was a bottom menu.
Thanks so much!

Is there a way to set those as default? The next chapter switched it back...

Long press on each individual option to make it default, or you can do it in one go in top menu, 2nd tab, Document settings -> Save current settings as default. Then, *newly opened* books will have the default settings applied.

(In any case, the settings shouldn't change at a chapter boundary though, unless the chapters are in different book files, but then you'd know.)
