Kindle Free For A

The PDF support is a little funky, and it doesnt seem to support any images beyond the cover image.

Kindle Free For A

Available from the App Store, the basic Stanza for Mac is free for a trial period, then must be updated to unlock all the features.

A list of your downloaded content appears when its launched (and can be sorted several ways), and clicking on a book opens a clean reader interface.

Whether youre reading a book, magazine, or other digital publication, Stanza for Mac makes it easy to move around the pages and chapters.

There are multiple layout views possible, which is useful on larger screens for MacBooks and iMacs, including larger print versions with horizontal and vertical scrolling.

We could import audiobooks, too, although theres nothing special about them in Stanza for Mac.

We had a couple of minor issues with Stanza for Mac locking up while reading a book, but this will likely be fixed in a maintenance release.

Theres a lot of competition in the reader market, but Stanza for Mac is worth a look at the trial version to see if it suits your needs.

The software supports the eBook formats epub, MS LIT, Amazon Kindle, Mobipocket, and PalmDoc, as well as general document formats HTML, PDF, MS Word, and Rich Text Format.

Stanza features a variety of text layout views, such as multicolumn, vertical scrolling, and horizontal scrolling.

Significantly, Stanza also supports exporting to a wide array of formats for use on the Apple iPhone using a bookmarklet technique, as well as mobile devices using 3rd party readers such as Mobipocket or the Amazon Kindle, and can also export books as audiobook MP3s.

I used Stanza to create.epub and.mobi files, imported them to iBook and Kindle readers on iPhone and iPad.

The Stanza files did not separate paragraphs properly, and in a few cases missed picking up some letters of some words.

Perhaps my choice of style was inappropriate, but in any case the result was not usable.

The customizable look and bookmark feature make it easier and more convenient to read with.
