The New York Times: Stanza: “The iPhone or iPod Touch can act as an electronic book reader.”
— Tip of the Week: Turn Your iPhone Into an e-Book
I am trying to open a PDF file (I have tried 5 of them now) in Stanza desktop and keep getting the error:
Could not load book
java.lang.ClassCastException: org.pdfbox.cos.COSArray
The pdfs load fine in preview and pdf reader.
I'm using an iMac - OS X 10.5.7, Stanza version 1.0.0-beta16 build #1:396
You can try to open the PDF
You can try to open the PDF in a PDF viewer (such as Adobe Acrobat or Apple's Preview.app), select all the text (using Edit->Select All), copying the text, and then going back to Stanza and selecting File->New From Clipboard to open the selected text from the clipboard contents. That often works around some problems with PDF import.
