Installation

You need to obtain a recent PocketBook package from the releases page. Then unzip the archive on your computer. There will be two directories in the unzipped directory, namely applications and system.

Copy and merge both the applications and system directories into your PocketBook's USB root directory

Integration with PocketBook OS (optional)

You can associate the file extensions you want to open in KOReader directly from Pocketbook home/library.

  1. Run KOReader
  2. Open the main menu
  3. Go to "Gear" → Device → Associate file extensions.

Choose the formats you want. You can enable all if you wish but remember that associating either svg or log files will expose a lot of internal KOReader files in your home. Most people will want to avoid that.

Other tweaks

It is possible to customize Pocketbook OS in different manners. Some of which might be useful for some KOReader users. If you're interested have a look at https://github.com/jjrrw174/PocketBook-Desktop-and-App-Customizations

Note: these changes are not supported here, so feel free to ask in the repo linked above.
