Curling effect of iBooks for pdf too?

[asen789]

Hi

When I read the PDF files in iBooks there is no curling effect over there like it is for reading ebooks.
Is it possible to enable the curling effect for reading the PDF documents in the iBooks?

i think nook or kindle are better for book reading

I have to admire your ability to remember and come back to this thread over such a long period of time.

That's quite list you are building.

Well, it's just easier to send this link to people who would like to know about pdf and comic readers with curl animations than to enumerate all those applications.

Besides, there is always hope that someone might finally surprise me with some really great animation

 

[twerppoet]

Had not thought of that. I'm sure it's appreciated by those who end up here.

Stanza, for those who still use iOS 5.1

Animation for pdf's is the same as for epubs, like flipping through rigid sheets of paper (i.e. without curling of edges).

Animation speed can be adjusted.

Djvu files are transformed to pdf on opening, takes about 5-10 minutes per book and resulting file is about 20 x bigger.

Amazon has a filter for anyone uploading to Kindle (backlist authors, self pubbed) but you can load a .PDF file that is already formatted and checked. Publishers have several options, the safest of which is to double-check the formatting! EPub is done the same way and can look different on different devices. For example after formatting an ePub file I've looked at it on Adobe's PC reader--where some weird spacing was put in--versus another ePUB reader where the spacing looked better. So there's even some discrepancy in how the "format" is rendered, for more: Edited
