Dear Mantano Reader Premium Users,
Your have purchased our flagship product, Mantano Reader Premium for Android, and we hope you appreciate it. We are working very hard to constantly improve it, and we hope you will still appreciate the next evolutions.
We know that our application has to run smoothly and that it\’s important to provide safe upgrades. We want to make sure that the next release will be tested on a very large set of devices, and we have decided to publish a Beta version for the upcoming 2.2 release. This Beta version is available only to the Mantano Reader Premium users. You can download it on the Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mantano.reader.android.beta.
This Beta version provides aims at providing an improved reading experience:
We have added the long-awaited page curl effect for EPUBs, and 2-pages view in landscape mode
The PDF reading now provides 3 different modes:
Horizontal scroll (with fast fling)
Vertical scroll. In this mode, the page width automatically adjusts to fit the device display width
Automatic: this mode automatically selects between each of the Horizontal or Vertical scroll, depending on the device orientation (vertical scroll for landscape mode, horizontal scroll for portrait mode)
Besides this, we have added new \”underscore\” and \”strikethrough\” operations on a selection, and simplified the interaction on these selections. The application remembers the previous tool used (select / highlight / underline / strikethrough), so you can easily do many similar operations in sequence without selecting the tool. This part is still a little bit unstable, and you may have surprises when you try to modify an existing highlight for example.
The complete Changelog is at the end of this message.
Remember: this is BETA software, please do not use it for professional use. At first launch, it duplicates your database, and there is no risk for you to destroy your Mantano Reader Premium data.
The following features are not yet reconnected or are still instable in PDF documents:
Magnifying glass: NOT YET RECONNECTED
Crop: NOT YET RECONNECTED
Reflow: NOT YET RECONNECTED
Highlight selection: UNSTABLE
We have found on one of our Android 2.1 devices 1 that EPUB files do not open. We are interested in any feedback on Android 2.1 devices.
You can report your feedback through the following discussion forum: http://community.mantano.com/forums/forum/community-support/mantano-reader/mantano-reader-beta-2-2-0/

We hope you will enjoy, and thank you again for your trust in our application !
Best regards,
The whole Mantano Team.
