It wouldn't be hard to add this to our production workflow, at least for .cbz files. It's a shame that the standard for metadata isn't better baked.

Well the meta-data structure is half-baked at the moment :-) but its only part supported by the readers as not all of them actually support meta data as either zip comments or an xml file.

Ah, here's a more elaborate spec for ComicBookInfo. The great thing about standards is that there are so many to choose from.

Support all of them, or none of them. A lot of the 'mainstream' comic archives don't contain any meta data. None of the Sandman Overture have any (which are the only ones I have on this laptop).

I'd really like to see this.
I prefer the individual JPGs over the PDF versions for download--it's probably just a prejudice, but I have to blow them up pretty big to enjoy reading the dialog, and the JPGs seem to handle that better. I have a similar experience to the JPGs with CBZs I've had (a limited set, but still); a far better user experience than reading PDFs of comics, IMO.

Matty 5:5 "Blessed are the geek: for they shall inherit the earth" And if they don't inherit it, they'll design and build a better one. Yes, I know geeks and nerds are different but most people don't know this and lump them all together.
