THORIUM READER




 Thorium Reader is the EPUB reader of choice for Windows 10, MacOS and Linux.

This EDRLab application is in constant development and aims at becoming a
reference for accessing EPUB 3 publications in reflow or fixed layout format,
audiobooks and visual narratives, PDF documents and DAISY 2.02 and 3 accessible
ebooks; LCP protected or not.

It is localized in a large set of languages, each version offering new locales.

Huge efforts are also made to get Thorium Reader highly accessible for visually
impaired and dyslexic people.

This application is free, with no ads and no leaks of private data.

This is the perfect tools for heavy readers, library patrons and students.




QUOTES

“I love Thorium and have introduced it to my students for reading any digital
content. It is doubly good when something that makes reading more accessible for
visually impaired people is also something that makes things more flexible for
all. It makes it so much easier to get buy-in for using it.” – Suzanne Norman
(Simon Frazer University, Canada)

WHY DEVELOPING THORIUM READER?

Until now there was no modern EPUB 3 compliant reading application usable on
Windows, OSX and Linux, properly accessible for print disabled people, with a
good support for the LCP DRM and capable of browsing OPDS catalogs.

EDRLab decided to build such an application and release it for free, in order to
provide users a great way to enjoy on a large screen EPUB publications, comics /
manga / bandes dessinées, audiobooks, LCP protected PDF documents.

Print disabled people now benefit from an EPUB 3 reading app which supports
screen readers like Jaws and NVDA on Windows, Voice Over on Mac.


TECHNOLOGY

Thorium Reader is based on the set of open-source chrome-less modules, a toolkit
named Readium Desktop. Thorium Reader and Readium Desktop both rely on
Electron.js, node.js and typescript, which are efficient cross-platform
technologies. Thorium is also using React components based on HTML 5/CSS 3.
