An ebook reader for the Nintendo DS, which incorporate html support. Dslibris supports EPUB format files encoded in UTF-8. Calibre is available for converting a plethora of formats, including PDF, to EPUB.

Features

  • Restoration of previous page on restart.
  • Brightness control on DS Lites.
  • Support for adding TrueType and OpenType fonts.

Installation

This being DS homebrew, you’ll require a media card for your DS, and you will need to DLDI patch dslibris.nds for your DS media device.

Copy all files and folders in this distribution .zip to the root folder of your DS media (using a subfolder does not work).

Put any EPUB you have into the book directory. The filenames should have an .epub extension.

To add your own fonts, add TrueType TTF files to the Font directory. You can then select them using the prefs button in the book browser.

Controls

Main browser:

D-Pad - Select book

Start or A - Open selected book

Tap on a book entry to open it.

When reading:

D-Pad/A/B/L/R - Advance/Retreat a page

X - Invert colors

Y - Bookmark page

Tap on the left and right sides of the touchscreen to move through pages.
