When I start to doubt my decision to buy an e-reader:

Anyone have any experience with reading books on an e-reader when the books have lots of inline pictograms? Not sure I want to bother with the epub version if every non-standard character is going to cause a page break. (My university library has a copy, I just won't have access until the COVID situation calms down.)

@lrhodes pdf is pretty much your only likely usable format for that kind of thing

@darius @lrhodes I second Darius's approach: pdf will solve this problem, and most ereaders can open pdfs.

The drawback is that the text might be small, depending on the format of the original book. I am pretty sure, if you have a epub, you might be able to reflow the whole book to better fit the dimensions of your ereader and then export that as pdf...
