I would like to add that if you have access to the TeX
-like source code, probably LaTeX
, there is usually a good solution. For example, you want to read preprints fetched from arXiv
of which you can download LaTeX
source code. In this case, you can have a try to take advantage of tex4ebook
, which compiles LaTeX
source code to epub
and mobi
ebooks which you can send to ebook readers like Kindle.
The easiest command to compile is:
tex4ebook -f epub+dvisvgm_hashes [filename]
or you replace epub
by mobi
if you want to compile a Kindle ebook (you need kindlegen
for that). dvisvgm_hashes
is used to generate svg
, Scalable Vector Graphics, pictures for equations etc, better than png
pictures. It does not work perfectly, but usually with a bit of hacking and modification of the LaTeX
source code, I can get an ebook file. I sent hundreds of papers and lecture notes to my Kindle, and it works for me.
