Pocketbook 740 pro doesn't see CoolReader #254

I dropped everything from release zip, no coolreader entry in "open with" menu had appeared

You also have to copy the cr3-pb.app file to /applications/ and the app will be displayed in the app panel. To make books open with the app you also have to copy the extensions.cfg file. On my tests, however, the font size was huge and I couldn't find a way to make it smaller than 124.

edit: found it. You have to edit /system/config/cr3/cr3.ini, value crengine.font.size (I think this file gets created once the app is run). A font size of 44 was good enough. However, changing it like this seems impractical, so I guess the application is not optimised for this device.

Just pinch the font smaller in an open book.
