PocketBook Era
Guides
Step-by-step setup and how-to articles for this device.
PocketBook’s software is more open than Kobo’s or Amazon’s: you can copy almost any book file straight onto the device and it will open. This section covers setting up a new Era, the several ways to load books, and its text-to-speech and audiobook playback — which, unusually, work through a built-in speaker as well as Bluetooth. The Calibre and KOReader sections cover those; Customization covers fonts, remapping the buttons and the sleep screen.
