I've been working a little on a converter based on the BPBible code to put e.g. the KJV on my kindle (after conversion from epub through Calibre). It looks like it's not to difficult to do.<br><br>At the moment I've got basic Bible text showing up in Calibre, but as Calibre uses webkit in its epub viewer, I expect lots of the CSS which I borrowed from BPBible's CSS won't work in other epub viewers. <br>
I still have a few features I want to put in like xrefs, notes, and extra modules (e.g. generate a KJV + strongs + ISBE + ... in one epub file, with some smartish linkage between the content) <br><br>On my Kindle I have the ESV student study Bible, and it works pretty well - you can go directly to a verse through the index feature, or you use the menu to get to a book, and the book introduction page has a link to the chapters in the book (which is how I mostly navigate). x-refs, footnotes and study notes are hyperlinks to sections at the end of each book. Random access works pretty well, though not quite as well as in a paper Bible. I'll probably use it as a model for navigation (not sure about the index items side of it, but the rest of it)<br>

is there a solution to convert a sword Bible into a readable epub file? Would be cool to have it my preferred Sword modules on my ebook reader.<br>
