Hi!
At certain parts of a book, the text disappears whenever I switch to dark mode. Some pages are just black, while others display one apostrophe or maybe two words in white. This persists for the rest of the book. In the same book, a few hundred pages before this specific chapter everything looks right in dark mode. This has happened with one specific book (I have other ebooks that work just fine) and I have already tested whether the issue persists in Nickel when switching to night mode - no issues there. I am wondering what I can do to keep my annotations and progress, and make the dark mode work for this book in the Libra 2 native reader. In a similar post on Reddit someone wrote that I have to edit the original ebook file. How do I then update the book on the reader with my changes without loosing progress and annotations? |

I expect that the specific book sets the text color to black (or dark blue, or something similar), so the reader is showing black-on-black. The easiest fix for this issue is to use Calibre and Convert books > Look & feel > Styling > Select what style information you want completely removed > Colors.
I don't use annotations, so I can't help you with that part of your question. |

I did as advised and now I suddenly have two copies of the same book, an ORIGINAL_EPUB and a new EPUB. No way for me to know which one has the annotations so I'm afraid to remove it. It also didn't seem to fix the issue on my device. Is there a way to edit the actual book I want to keep instead of using the convert function, getting new copies every time I do so? It's very unpractical and confusing to me.

If you have the KoboUtilities plugin installed, in it's dropdown menu, go to Driver => Configure current Driver. On the second page of the configuration dialog (3 pages for the KoboTouch driver, 4 pages for the KoboTouchExtended driver) is where you would see that checkmark. |
