Advanced conversion options
Advanced conversion options in Conversion settings are the settings of mangaprep, the converter that makes the books. Most of them change the pixels of a page. These pages show how: one real page, converted twice, with only that option different.
Pages about one group of options each
Section titled “Pages about one group of options each”| Page | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Reading | A webtoon-shaped chapter converted as pages and as strips, and the reading direction each book format records |
| Cropping | How much of a page is cut away, in pixels, and what the cut keeps |
| Color and tone | The same page in grayscale and in color, lighter and darker, with the numbers behind the change |
| Double-page spreads | A spread split, kept whole or both, in which order, and what the two-page view writes into an EPUB |
| Size and borders | How a page is fitted to the screen, enlarged, stretched or cropped to fill, and what surrounds it when it is not the screen’s shape |
| Page images | The file each page is saved as: JPEG or PNG, how many grays, and what each costs in bytes |
| Cover | How a book’s cover is made from its first image, which formats have one, and the front of a wide image cut out of it |
| Book metadata | Where each format keeps the title, author and language, what a ComicInfo.xml changes, and when a Kobo book is named .kepub.epub |

How the examples were made
Section titled “How the examples were made”- The pages come from comics whose authors allow copying: Pepper&Carrot by David Revoy, in color, Go Go! Encyclopedia Girls by Kasuga, in black and white, and a page by Polylerus with a black background. The credits and licences are at the end of this page, and under every picture.
- The conversion is the mangaprep that Manga2Ink ships, started from Manga2Ink’s starting settings: Kindle Paperwhite 6 (1272 × 1696 pixels), CBZ, manga reading order, double-page spreads kept both ways, small pages enlarged, margins and page numbers cropped. Only the option named in the caption is different between two pictures.
- The captions give the setting as the app names it, the flag that setting passes to mangaprep when you run it from a terminal (
no flagis the default), and the size of each page mangaprep wrote (not convertedis a picture of the input). Click a picture to open it larger. - The tables of values are not pictures: the title, author, language, reading direction and file name in them were read back from the book mangaprep wrote, converted with the same starting settings unless a row says otherwise.
- What is not shown. The free black-and-white manga there is has little printed screentone, so what depends on it, such as moiré, is described and not pictured. Pictures show pixels on your screen, not the e-ink screen of a reader.
