About Thorium

Thorium Reader is the EPUB reader of choice for Windows 10 and 11, MacOS and Linux.
This EDRLab application is in constant development and aims at becoming a reference for accessing EPUB 3 publications in reflow or fixed-layout format, audiobooks and visual narratives, PDF documents and DAISY 2.02 and 3 accessible ebooks, LCP protected or not.
It is localised in a large set of languages, each version offering new locales.
Massive efforts are also made to make Thorium Reader highly accessible for visually impaired and dyslexic people.
