BSV Forum - General - Off-Topic ebook test "The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has limits." - Albert Einstein Aug 06 2011 02:04 am #2Always_jbj http://www.diabola.net/stuff/test.php?no=12907 It works, but it puts the cover at the end not the beginning. Aim from the heart Some will love and some will curse you, baby You can go to war But only if you have to Fanfic ~*~ Artwork ~*~ Live Journal Huh, in which reader? It's at the beginning in the two I checked so far. "The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has limits." - Albert Einstein Are writers going to be able to put fics in epub instead of us converting for our ereaders?! That would be fantastic for completed stories. Aug 07 2011 06:07 pm #5Cordykitten Works fine with the Reader Library Software (haven't loaded it to my Sony PRS 600 yet). Without loading I can't check the font - I can't make it bigger with the software, it seems to stay the same size. Normally the software shows the same as the reader and makes the font bigger if selected. (But the font is big to read even in "S".) Aug 07 2011 09:35 pm #6Always_jbj Huh, in which reader? It's at the beginning in the two I checked so far. In Callibre... but it's fine once I put it on the Kindle.

How do I do this. And I just bought a Kindle Fire and I would like instructions on how to read my saved stories on this device. Please say I can do this. Thank You for your answer hopefully May 06 2012 11:08 pm #8Always_jbj http://www.diabola.net/stuff/test.php?no=12907 ok I tested this file and tried to read it on my Kindle I have on my computer and I can't get it to show up.

Thank You for your answer hopefully I use Calibre. It's easy to use, and as well as managing your library and moving files easily between the computer and your reader, it can also convert a wide selection of file types. Or you can email files to your Kindle (the email address you need to use should be listed in your Kindle settings).

The book came up in the list with the picture but when opened, the picture is at the end of the story that starts with the summery. May 10 2012 09:59 am #10Always_jbj I use Calibre too. The book came up in the list with the picture but when opened, the picture is at the end of the story that starts with the summery. Yep, it does that, but once you load it to the Kindle (I don't know about other devices), the cover is at the beginning where it should be.

This opened easily on my laptop, but I haven't tried saving it yet or putting it on the iPad. I probably won't have time to play with it until next week, but we'll see. What is Callibre? I googled it and went to the site, but I"m not sure what it's purpose is. Is it to transfer things between the computer and the reader? I am not a minion of Evil... I am upper management.

It's also good for converting from one format to another.

Also good as a library over your books, and to that free. Takes almost every format. May 28 2012 01:01 pm #14BloodyHell @slaymesoftly Could you convert your latest story (If thats what it takes) into an e-reader format? epub or a good pdf would do. I'd like to read it on my train rides but I can't save the story properly from BSV.

That was a fast answer, woo. That'd be awesome! Thanks a lot! :) Forgive a newcomer to Kindle but does this mean I can convert saved fanfic with Calibre the same way as the excellent demo shows for ebooks? Forgive a newcomer to Kindle but does this mean I can convert saved fanfic with Calibre the same way as the excellent demo shows for ebooks? Forget I asked, I tried it out and it works perfectly! Brilliant, thanks for the tip as I've been wasting hours trying to do the email thing, Calibre is so much easier. :cheer: | |||
