About this app

EBookDroid is a highly customizable document viewer for Android.
EBookDroid supports the following ebook and document formats: DjVU, PDF, XPS (OpenXPS), FictionBook (fb2 and fb2.zip), Comics Book formats (cbr and cbz), plus - starting with version 2 - EPUB, RTF, MOBI and AWZ3.

EBookDroid provides flexible font mapping for PDF documents:
- If an external font is found in the same folder with document, this font will be applied.
- Also, user can define a list of directories (/sdcard/fonts by default) where external fonts can be found.
- If an external font in a PDF document has the same family name as one of the font found in these directories, the found font will be applied.
- Otherwise, the appropriate NimbusL font will be used.

EBookDroid 2.0 provides the following extra tools:
- Text selection and external dictionary support.
- Text highlighting
- Free-hand annotations.
- Text notes and page notebooks.

Collaboration with electronic publication sites and access to online ebook catalogs is allowed by the supported OPDS ( [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OPDS Open Publication Distribution System) protocol. This is the reason the app is requiring permissions for network access.

EBookDroid allows you to customize the way you read on a per book basis: each document's layout can be tailored to give you the best reading experience and all settings will be remembered the next time you will open it.
Whatever your document, be it a two-faced xerox, a book with wide asymmetric margins or a multi-column article, EBookDroid provides you with features to split pages, automatically or manually crop margins and instantly zoom to a column's content. Please refer to the Wiki section of the developers' website for further instructions on how to use such features (don't forget to read the FAQ).

Should you experience any problems, please report them in the Issues section on the developer's website, at the following address: http://code.google.com/p/ebookdroid/.
If you are having issues with a specific document, don't forget to attach it to your question to the developers.

Please note:

EbookDroid uses MIME types to handle different file types. Unfortunately, Android's and many other file managers might not support all MIME types. When this happens, you will not be able to open said files directly from the file manager. Some file managers allow you to add new MIME types and associate them with the corresponding file extensions. Refer to your file manager manual to get further instructions on how to do that. All MIME types supported by EBookDroid can be found in the Wiki section of the developer's website.

I like the simplicity and functionality of this app very much. However, there are a few things that irk me. In night mode, under the 'show' section of the right slide menu, the 'Outline' sub-menu is dark, but the Bookmarks, Drawings, Notes, and Notebook sub-menus are all still bright white. Using the 'Dark Room' setting helps dim the glare a bit, but I'd just really like ALL those panels to be dark following the theme of the main side menus. Why not just maintain that theme? The 'Outline' section itself is kind of wonky in 'Night' mode as well. Though it's dark, it doesn't quite match the theme of the main side menus. There's this thick white border around it, and I feel like the text within doesn't need be that large since it often leads to chapter titles being stacked. A wider side menu area, or smaller text would probably solve that. Next, while the 'Bookmark' visual indicator is fairly easy to see, the 'Note' indicator, the asterisk, can get lost, and both are hard to see in 'Night' or 'Dark room' mode. Please give us the option to control their color and transparency level for those modes or in general. Finally, the ability to also export annotations/notes as plain .txt files would be very helpful.

Everything is really great with this app! I've read quite a number of lengthy books in it, and it's pretty comfortable. Kinda important to note: Text based formats (like epub / rtf / mobi / fb2) can be set to different font sizes so pages and line lengths are recalculated, but that's VERY hidden under All Settings > Format Specific > Fonts and hyphenation. I'd love for a quick access setting on the right side menu. This is because the portrait font size is about 1/3 of the landscape font size, which is a bit peculiar.

I absolutely LOVE the feature of auto-crop on books, because I have a few that are nicely scanned, but with heavy margins for some reason. It would be cool to edit the PDF making the crops permanent, but that's not your market. I second the mention of "decoder restarting" blank page bug, but that hasn't driven me away from the app. There were a few keen differences in functionality on the later updates, which might drive me back to a previous version. If I find them, I'll go ahead and list them
