[QUOTE="MNblockhead, post: 9312892, member: 6796661"] What Kindle do you have? I have a Kindle Oasis, which I love. It is great for reading novels regardless of ambient lighting. Perfect size and weight to hold and read for hours. Comfortable to use in small confines like an airplane economy seat. But it is not at all good for reading game book PDFs. I would want a PDF to keep the same "look" of my Warhammer Fantasy PDF when viewing on a laptop or larger tablet with larger and color display. But there is no way I'm going to try to read it on my Kindle Oasis or my smart phone. With the DnD Beyond app, I have comfortably read entire D&D 5e books on my smart phone because it will reformat the text for the screen size, I can control the font size, etc. It would be nice to have TTRPG books in formats optimized for e-readers. Where being able to read, browse, and search the test is important but maintaining the exact page layout is not. I'm hoping the technology improves to better convert PDFs to e-book friendly formats. Though, perhaps, I just need to buy a bigger e-reader if I want to read game books on the go. [/QUOTE]
