About
the BETA for version 1.1 (VFS)!
DeepReader
1.03 now supports full
extended ASCII characters, allowing the reading of Spanish, French,
German, Danish, and other foreign language eBooks!
DeepReader
is the shareware eBook reader designed to make the reading
experience on a Palm handheld more like reading your favorite
book.
DeepReader
is available for any PalmOS handheld (including devices from Palm,
Handspring, Sony, HandEra, and others). DeepReader will run on
all 2MB (or more) devices running OS 3.5 or higher. DeepReader
fully supports the Palm DOC (.pdb) format, including bookmarks.

Using
"Smart" formatting and a choice of several easy-to-read
anti-aliased fonts, DeepReader mimicks book typesetting
techniques, including clear paragraph breaks and indenting, smart
quotes, true dashes, italic emphasis, full justification options,
and more.
Anti-aliased
text and sub-pixel kerning improves document readability
on all Palm devices. Furthermore, the anti-aliased font
technology utilizes "color-fringing" techniques
to increase the effective resolution of the fonts on color Palm
devices, including the Palm m505, IIIc, and Handspring Visor Prism,
further enhancing the readability of the text.
DeepReader
1.0 is offered as a trial download
with no features disabled! Only a periodic "nag"
document will occasionally remind you to register your software.
If you are as pleased with the product as we believe you will
be, a simple registration fee of only $12 will silence the "Reminder"
messages forever.

Three
different easy-to-read Anti-Aliased Fonts built-in!
-- Ray Larabie's Berylium, a serifed "book"-type
font reminiscent of classics like Times-Roman and Garamond; Rubicon
Computer Labs' Frobisher, a popular and extremely readable
sans-serifed font choice; and Pakenham, also from Ray Larabie's
deluxe collection, an alternate narrow sans-serifed font.

Font
Magnification is available at the press of the magnifying
glass, providing a comfortable "teleprompter-sized"
option as well as the standard font size. On the new hi-res Sony
Clie and HandEra devices, a third font size is also available.
You
can view your eBook with either Left or Full Text Justification.
Fonts are kerned cleanly at sub-pixel increments, making a ragged
right edge an option, but not a necessity.
Automatic
"Smart" Formatting makes standard DOC formatting
look much more like printed typesetting. This includes paragraph
indentation, smart carriage return/linefeed-handling, elimination
of extra and mid-line carriage-returns, and various character
replacements, including: changing standard quotes to "smart
quotes," double dashes (--) to true dashes, and underscore
emphasis (like "_this_") into true italics. Common
DOC formatting snafus are handled with elegance, so that your
reading experience is book-like and natural.
Numerous
scrolling options are available, including Automatic Smooth-Scrolling
and Smooth-Scrolling on any advance, be it screen
tap, up-down arrows, or Jog-Dial. Or scrolling can be disabled
for fast paging through documents. Continuous Smooth-Scrolling
is activated either by tapping the lower-right-most icon (and
paused using the Pause button just to its left) or by toggling
the Percent Bar to the left of the icons, easily done with
a finger when the stylus isn't handy.
There
is full Jog-dial Support for both Clie and HandEra devices
(roll line-by-line, push for full page advance), and the new HandEra
330 offers extra screen real-estate for your document with the
silk-screen area minimized.
Bookmarks
can be created, renamed, or deleted, and you can
instantly Go To any area previously marked. A preference
option allows you to remember the last position in any
document, or only in the last one opened.
A
robust Find feature allows both case-sensitive and caseless
searches forward through your document, automatically highlighting
your found word (or words) in italics and allowing for a quick
Find of any subsequent instances.
We
are confident you will find DeepReader the best
eBook
reading experience on the Palm. Find out today!
