A way to look at the internals of a currently loaded book would be great.

Sorry about that. Here's my current problems:

A lot of the times when downloading a book from ZLib, the book file and its structure is heavily modified from its original retail form due to being converted from another format. Often times there is no meaningful difference when viewing it, but there are cases especially when books use alternate script for eastern languages that these modifications cause the text to not render as they should.

A lot of the files currently on ZLib are missing font files that are referenced in the css of the book. A reader won't know this until they've already downloaded the book and attempt to view it in their reader software. In a lot cases these issues are minor, but they are an issue for users on operating systems that don't provide those fonts by default.


There's no way currently to tell what's being used on Literata. With the ability to view the internal file structure and even the contents of css files, these issues can be assessed beforehand. This would help greatly with weeding out bad files and with wasting quota/bandwidth.

Love to ability to export the list of books in "My Library" perhaps as a coma-delimited text file? Not the book contents, rather , book citation info (title author, year, language, publisher, content type, file type and size...maybe an image).

Hello! You have chosen the wrong branch.
Unfortunately, we are not considering the possibility of creating the list as a separate file. We apologize!

A feature to download all the quotes from a book in a single pdf would make Litera ultimate. Also why the quote highlighting with colors feature replaced completely with social tags? Highlighting with colors could have been kept as an option. Thanks.

Please add an option to view books by a page at a time instead of a whole thing. I think that this would help with viewing books that have double spreads or pages that differ in size.
