I've read the threads related to dictionaries on pocketbooks, but when I put any dic file in the folder "dictionaries" inside "system", the reader app doesn't show to choose it. Maybe it's different in this device?

Edit: sorry, I thought I have the .dic files, but they were .dict. I'm still struggling to convert them with converter.exe

Hello, I'm trying to convert .dict files to .dic with converter.exe. It doesn't work dragging the .dic file and the folder with the auxiliary files and dropping them on the executable because it shows "error in arguments".

Does anyone have the instructions to run this program from cmd?

Did you ever resolve this?

Dropping files on executables really only works if they specifically provided for that option.
More especially, running command line tools like that often has the window disappear and you have no idea what happend.

Run from the a Windows "MS-DOS" (i.e. cmd.exe) window.
