I had to revert back to 3.3, the EbookUI settings were removed in 3.4 and you cannot use custom fonts when reading EPUB files. It's unusable for me like this.

- UmbertoNoEco 4y agoWhy in god's name would they do that? I miss the reader, too bad is not available in Linux
- incognitanon 4y agoYou can actually run Sumatra in Linux with Wine. It's just that you have to alter a path in the PDF association config to suppress one annoying error.
- UmbertoNoEco 4y agoThat's good to know, but it is way too much, besides I hate all kind of virtualization (Docker, Wine, VMWare), hate it. The only one I tolerate ins QEMU 'cause I can play with my toy OSes there. From time to I design a plan to make some sort of Sumatra version for Linux, but it is probably more bite that I could chew.
- jszymborski 4y agoGood news, Wine is not an emulator! Wine is a linux implementation of (some) of the windows API
- UmbertoNoEco 4y agoEven worse, at least in a emulator you are making native calls, with wine you need to pray the "compatibility layer" + the OS + the program play nice. I have never had a pleasant experience with it, every program sooner or later crashes with some obscure message about a missing DLL or something. I use Linux, but if a software is Windows only I simply discard it from my choices.
- pessimizer 4y agoI don't use Windows software either, but you've been told that it runs with an error, and how to fix that error. Your past experience with other software is irrelevant.
