BookNaviger

Even though the computer caught the attention of the majority with its magical programs and entertainment options, books are far from being obsolete, and have converted into electronic formats. Dedicated to them, BookNaviger gives you the possibility to keep an organized collections and read books in a cool environment.

Simple visuals quickly get you up and running

In order for the application to properly run, you first need to make sure that Java Runtime Environment is on the target PC. This means that you can use the program on computers which aren’t necessarily fitted with Windows, because all functions are delivered through Java.
The visual design is simple and intuitive enough to allow individuals of all levels of experience to get the hang of things. There’s a navigation panel split in half to show every detected series in the collection, as well as the items when selecting a specific entry, while the cover is shown in a dedicated preview area.

File support and preview options

However, you might find it a little tricky to organize your collection because of the lack of any info provided on file support. Note that you’re not able to load any kind of e-book file format such as EPUB, but rather PDF documents and pictures, but not even plain or rich text formats.
Loading a collection is only possible through the browse dialog which lets you choose an entire folder. All subfolders containing readable files are also included in the series section. A simple click on the preview area is enough to switch to fullscreen for a better reading experience.
Different profiles can be created so each holds its own records. Moreover, the application can generate a simple, or customizable report under the HTML format so you can integrate it in other projects.

A few last words

Taking everything into consideration, we can state that BookNaviger comes with good intentions, but can prove to be a little tricky at first because of file support confusion. However, once this obstacle is bypassed, it makes for a neat tool with which books under image and PDF file formats are organized in a database and viewed in a comfortable environment.
