Subject: EUC-KR on Nokia N800 w/ OS2008
hello,
I am really hoping to ditch my palm and use the N800+FBReader combo to
read all of my ebooks.

I have many Korean ebooks in txt format - and I cannot get them to
display on the FBReader.

The funny thing is that the file names display perfectly in Korean
when I browse for ebooks in FBReader menu, but the actual ebook texts
are displayed in "four numbers in a box" format.

Is there a way I can fix this, perhaps by adding EUC-KR to the list of
encoders?
If so, how do I go about adding the encoder to the FBReader?

I have Nokia N800 with OS2008 and CJK support.
Thank you in advance for your help!

Tosser

Are you using a font that can display Korean characters (look in
preferences (TOOLS icon) under the styles tab)?

If that doesn't work, you might try using html book files or html-
converted-to-Plucker book files.
I find that html-converted-to-Plucker book files seem to preserve more
text formating than others.

Hello Alan,
yes, I am actually using one of the Korean fonts that came with Maemo
CJK support for OS2008.
However, the encoding options in the preference does not include any
options for Korean.  I see several Chinese and Japanese...
Thank you for your comments!

This looks like a bug.  Korean encodings were added in 8.0, and I do
see EUC-KR under Windows.

are the updates universal for all platform?
Perhaps the encoder was omitted  from maemo version package...

if this is the case, is there a way to add euc-kr encoder manually?

thank you!

There is a way to do this, and wagnerian posted a link to the needed
file on this group - but the link is broken.  The simplest reference
to the post is http://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=10825
although you can find a similar post by searching this group.

I have the original version of wagerian's encoding file, which I have
posted as Encodings.zip.

To use this, copy EUC-KRenc to (something like) /usr/share/zlibrary/
encodings and in this directory edit Encodings.xml to include:

                <encoding region="Korean" name="EUC-KRenc">
                </encoding>

So far as I know, this worked for Wagerian - although iconv modules
have largely removed the need for xml files with encoding descriptions
(such as EUC-KRenc).
