Comic Book Reader

The Comic Book Reader allows you to view scanned comic books on your computer. The comic book is scanned and saved as Jpegs and are numbered in order starting from 00.jpg. You are able to browse for your folder containing the specific comic book you want to read within the application. Also, the application loads a brief description of the comic you are about to read from a stored text file in the specific comic book folder, so you don’t have to remember or search the Internet for a description. The application loads the cover of the comic book as the background each time you open a comic book folder. This application utilizes the Adobe Air File class. The File class contains the code to open a browse window native to the operating system, in this specific browse window to select directories/folders only. Once a folder is selected, the file names are loaded into array and the first page of the comic book (generally the cover of the book) is loaded first on the screen. To go the next or back to the previous page, the NEXT and PREV buttons calls the file name from the array.
