Suggestions for a good math epub reader on Windows?
I have tried Calibre & SumatraPDF, I was so excited for Calibre until it never worked properly on the one textbook I needed. For example, whenever I went to the next page it would stall on loading forever, and this is apparently a known issue that's [according to the posts I read from the owner] caused by a graphics driver that I'm not interested in delving into just to read an ebook.
The ebook itself is pretty large with a lot of mathematical equations and images, but nothing my computer should be stalling on. The issue with SumatraPDF is that it can't seem to render the mathematical equations properly, and I couldn't find any simple way to load them without having to do more work.
Honestly my suggestion is to fix your graphics driver problem.
A quick search reveals there are many epub readers for Windows, but I haven't used any of them except some proprietary store-related apps, so I can't recommend any of them.
You could also do a workaround and use Calibre to convert the file into a PDF or some other format.
Thanks! The workaround worked, I converted it into a different epub output first (tablet) and that one worked but did run into stalls if I switched too quickly between chapters. Not really a problem but I turned it into a PDF which is working 100% and stable.
