epub viewer with choosable paper color, or other "related" settings
by dedec0 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4T7BS)
The PDF viewer i most use in my computer is XPDF. Just because it has a setting to choose the papercolor. It does not work in all PDFs because some have forced black on white parts, or are made by scanning a book. But these are not a much big deal, most of the time.
A few minutes ago, i discovered a great book i want to read: "The Debian Administrator's Handbook". And what is great about it, is that it is completely free! (: It even has a translation to my language! (possibly incomplete in a few parts, but it will not matter much)
But for my language, it has no PDF version yet, on the page i linked above. Just EPUB or MOBI. ):
With XPDF, i always open pdf files with the command or alias:
Code:alias xpdf='xpdf -cont -papercolor "#aab"'For this paper color, specifically, i get this result with the PDF file i mentioned here: http://imgbox.com/GrR2S2A9
In the image above, you see a page of the PDF that contains a bad white part. But these are not much present in the book, so it is tolerable.
Now, for EPUBs, do you know a free software that i can do a similar thing? The pre-installed viewer for epub files have no option of this kind.
