The previous MobiPocket eBook reader may make you disappoint with its half-finished condition. But now it seems that we get another nice one called ZXReader. The nice work of ebook reader offering you the customizable display in every side. Take for instance: adjust the color and font, screen margin or info bar location. This free ebook reader will divide your screen into some touchable regions. They can activate various functions that can be customized like move back, move forward and so on.

Unfortunately ZXReader only supports for 2 formats; .fb2 files and regular text files. Based on this fact so we need other apps like FictionBook Designer and MobiPerl to conver prc > html > fb2. FictionBook Designer can open various formats like rb, xml, html, doc, pdf, rtf, lit, pdb and prc.

Download ZXReader 1.2.3 for Symbian S60 5th edition device (N97, Nokia 5800 XM).

How to convert PRC files to HTML

You can use MobiPerl to convert to HTML (for rpc file MobiPerl is better than FBD), then use FBD for the rest.

1. Take MobiPerl. Using your Windows download this latest binary:
mobiperl win-0.0.42.zip.
2. Unpack into a directory. You need the mobi2html.exe.
3. Create mobi2html.exe shortcut (click the file, hold Alt key, drag ur mouse away).
4. Drag the prc file on top of that shortcut. A command prompt box will open and close.
5. When you check your “unpacked” folder in MobiPerl directory you will see that html
file. Just plug that file into FBD. Follow the above directions.

It is recommended for you to make an ebook directory. When adding your ebook to ZXReader: Library > Options > Add File.
