Importing Epubs from JW.org into Moon Reader Pro

[Hope]

Question -

 

What is the best way to find specific pages for PDFs and EPubs?  I love Moon+ Reader except when we're reviewing the Yearbooks.  It takes me the entire 10 minutes to try and find exactly what page they're on since it doesn't seem to correspond with the pages in the real book.  Grrrr...

 

I have a similar problem with PDFs.  One time a few weeks ago, I found myself at a meeting without my songbook.  I prefer the book with the notations so, that what I used.  It was also VERY difficult to find the songs after the first one. 

 

What am I missing?  Please help....

On the yearbook epub (or other books) you have a link to each page bellow the title "page navigation" on the beginning of the book

There is no natural correlation between an epub page and the book because the nature of an epub makes its pages change depending on the formating you choose.

On the other end, the pdf has the exact correlation as the printed version. If you use ezpdf reader follow this steps to quickly go to the desired page:

Touch the pointed area, then write the desired page and... Voilá!

Ah!  So I shouldn't use Moon+ Reader for PDFs?

 

Thank you for the Epub tip, brother.    I don't know how I missed that detail...

I faintly remember trying different eBook apps for my Android device. The main problem for me as regards MoonReader was its lack of support for non-Latin characters.

A major part of my theocratic activities focus on languages using Ethiopian characters (Ge'ez). Finding an easy-to-use/intuitive Android app that would make it easy to read/show publications of the Organisation has thus been almost impossible. It doesn't seem to be depending on whether an appropriate font has been installed on the device or not. I can see the characters just fine when for instance viewing the Daily Text on WOL in either Tigrinya or Amharic.

Additional challenge has been to find an app that fulfills the requirement above, but also has no limit on the font size. Sometimes I've joined in at a Bible study where the Tigrinya-speaking student is also visually-impaired. If the characters are large enough he can read the Scriptures for instance, but most apps seem to be offering just a few predefined options, eg. Tiny, Small, Medium, Large, Huge. How about XXXXXL?

Hi Julius

Moon Reader can increase the font as much as you want (and intuitively sliding your finger on the right corner of the divece)

Is it big enough?

I don't know if the characters are correct on the above image but you can put any special font on the folder "sdcard/fonts". You can choose also the option "use embeded font" to use the font used to create the magazine. When opening, if the font is missing you have the option to download it.

Hope this helps ;)

Uami,

 

I'm not sure how to do this on an Android tablet BUT, in iBooks (Apple), you can select one of two choices - show iBooks page numbers OR show actual page numbers.  This is only true of EPUBs though.
