Question: I know you say original books, but having being misled by others stating their books were original and unedited, I want you to please confirm that the ebooks are the original editions of all books, etc., unedited, not a later printing of the original unedited versions. For the cd with pdf files, you specifically give the dates of the editions, but for this product I don\\\'t see that, so am doublechecking. Thank you

 Answer: The ebooks are not necessarly first edition books. They are pre-1977 books.

If you want the verified first-editon books get the printed books.

We will at some point update the ebooks to first edition, but at the moment they are pre-1977, not necessarly first edtion.

Question: Does it require internet to access the contents?

 Answer: Internet connection is just required to download the files. Onces downloaded you can read the contents from your device offline.

Question: Hare Krishna. How can I download this to an iPad?

 Answer: First the files must be downloaded to a computer and unzipped, then they can be transferred to your Ipad to read from there.

Question: Can I get the content in USB stick. I have android OS on my Samsung mobile note 2.

 Answer: You should still be able to read epub files from an Android phone, though  you may have to download a special app to do so. If you try and it does not work we also have the pdf version available, and would be happy to send you the download for this file type if the Epub version does not work for you.

Question: Hare Krsna. Could you please advise me on the best way to view on my samsung s8 galaxy smart phone?

 Answer: There are several apps for android that you can use to read epub files. Some popular options are, FullReader and Aldiko book reader.

Question: Hare Krishna! Does this digital books come with Sanskrit text and word for word translation like the physical books? Thank you very much

 Answer: They have not got the Devanagari text, but have got the Roman transliteration and word-for-word meanings.

Question: Are the books indexed by chapter and verse? So that one can directly go to a specific verse? Also are these commercial quality epubs or simply converted from the pdf scans? Without checking every word and layout. Thank you! Hare Krsna!

 Answer: These are books, not database. So they are for reading. You can go to the chapters in the book from the Table of Contents at the front of the book, but you can not go directly to verses. Depending on your devices search function you can search for the verses.

They are proper ebooks, not converted from scans, they are based on an older version of Bhaktivedanta Archives \"Original Books Folio\". So some of the books are not first edition, but all are pre-1977 editions.

We will update the ebooks in the near future to first edition, and everyone who has purchased them will get a free upgrade when it is available.

But ebooks are books for reading, they don\'t have the ablility to jump to specific verses, only through the search function on your device.

Question: hare krishna , after unzipping the file in epub app , the fonts are not appropriate .not in readable format ? please provide the steps to view the fonts clearly.

 Answer: Epub books conatain embedded fonts. So if they are not displaying in your reader it is the problem of the reader, no the books. Fonts don\'t need to be installed. You just need a proper ePub reader and it will automatically show the correct fonts.

So please try with different ePub reader program or find the setting in your reader to use the embedded fonts.
