Arc Adding PDF CBR CBZ to Kobo Library/Collections

KoboMan123 · 07-11-2015, 02:13 PM

Hi guys,

I have searching this forum and various other google sites high and low but I did not find any direct responses to my issues. I love my KOBO ARC HD and love it for the collection of books.

Kobo advertizes that it has native support for pdf, cbr and cbz files....

1. can i add cbr and cbz files to a collection?

right now i have a comic app in my collections which launches the comic app to view comics. This defeats the purpose if cbr and cbz are natively supported?

2. magazines: same issue as above, I have PDF magazines which I cannot for the life of me figure out how to add to collections. When it advertises that pdf, cbr, cbz files are natively supported.

Right now my "collections" look like app containers.

The plethora of screenshots on websites and youtube videos i've seen people appear to launch it from their collections and they are able see the beautiful covers on the main page. How do I accomplish this?!!

please help.

Hi all,

Apologies if I'm asking something real dumb but could someone please give me a clear-cut answer with a brief explaination? I see a lot of views but no reply since I posted this

I just want to know if I have to continue downloading apps to view comics and magazines? I was told by the sales rep and from what I saw online that comics/magazines were natively supported.
