We at Miklal are excited to announce that we have produced Hebrew Bibles for two popular e-Readers: Amazon’s Kindle and Barnes and Noble’s Nook. Here are links to the Kindle Hebrew Bible and the Nook Hebrew Bible.
These products display Hebrew beautifully on the e-ink screens of these e-readers, and we have added various navigational tools to make them easy to use. We plan to write more about these products in the near future, providing full product pages with screenshots.
You may have heard that these e-readers lack support for displaying right-to-left. You may also have heard that the Kindle lacks support for embedded fonts. If so, you are correct. However, we at Miklal have never let that stop us before. Whether in our own products or in work produced for our clients, we have previously developed various ways to display beautiful Biblical Hebrew on Windows, Mac, Linux, iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch, Android, Blackberry, Windows Mobile, and Palm, so we figured, “why not give try it on Kindle and Nook?” We think you will be delighted with the results.
