View Full Version : Tweaked MS Reader VGA - still same size

I recently upgraded to a VGA device expecting great things from eBooks.

eReader was updated recently and works beautifully with no tweaks, looks simply lovely. Font sizes may be varied from tiny to large in useful increments. Significantly more text may be displayed on the screen compared to the QVGA version, with no loss in legibility.

MS Reader on the other hand is a puzzle. By default it shows everything in enormous font sizes, even at the smallest setting. By using the BruteForceVGA hack from Tweaks2K package it gets a bit better, however it doesn't really make use of the extra resolution. Looking at the same page on a QVGA screen, the only difference is that the VGA version displays two extra lines, the line width is identical on both screens.

Both are set to the Smallest font setting.

Has anyone discovered a way to make MS Reader more VGA aware?

Or do we just wait for MS to release a version that fully supports VGA devices?

Regards
Christopher

We'll have to wait, I'm afraid.
