Question

ePub/eBook/ADE compatibility with reMarkable tablet(s) - please !

Hello,

I am the proud, and happy, owner of a reMarkable tablet. Wanting to try out it's eBook feature, I bought an eBook (epub), but ADE doesn't recognize my reMarkable, I've been able to load the eBook from the finder into the reMarkable app, but when I open the file the pages are all white in the app on my Mac, and the eBook won't even open on the tablet.

reMarkable have announced that for the time being DRMs are not supported, but I don't know if the eBook I bought has a DRM, is there a way to know? Is that the problem?

How do I (we, reMarkable users) ask Adobe to make the reMarbale tablet and/or app recognizable and compatible with ADE?

Cheers,

Damien

      People here are responding with 2–3 step processes that require getting a computer involved and acting like this is acceptable when the product costs over $300.

        Hello There,

        Even if I hope you've found a way to do it (before now I mean), I've found a quick fix today, regarding an epub I bought and needed to be opened through ADE. I hope it'll help people in the future too!
        Just go on ADE, click right on the epub and select "Show file in Explorer" (or in Finder on mac). Then, you just have to drag and drop the file to your Remarkable Desktop App and Tadaah!

        Here's the source, if more info is needed: https://help.overdrive.com/en-us/1219.htm

          I tried that. epub is still only white pages (and doesn't contain all the pages). If you did get it to work, please share!

            Does Adobe's DRM work?

            ADE does not recognize my remarkable ereader.

            Computer is autorised, ereader connected, does not show up in the ADE.
