Getting Started

XIII. READING EPUBS

Many eReader files are in the ePUB file format.

The CRUZ does not natively support this file

format, so an additional application available on

the Amazon Market must first be downloaded.

Keep in mind that many ePUB files are also

DRM-protected, preventing illegal distribution of

publications. In order to read DRM-protected

ePUBs, you will need to download a specialized

application that manages the DRM requirements.

For instructions on how to read a DRM-protected

ePUB on your CRUZ, visit the CRUZ Support Hub

at www.CRUZreader.com/support

Step 1

Install Aldiko Book Reader from the Amazon Market onto

your CRUZ.

Step 2

Transfer your ePUB files to your SD card at the following

folder location: /sdcard/Books.

Step 3

Open Aldiko and select “Load ePUB from SDcard.”

Navigate to the “Books” folder and select your book to

begin reading.
