kitepdf-cbz

The reader for CBZ comic archives. A ZIP file of images becomes a document with one page for each image.

• The pages come in natural file-name order, so page2 comes before page10.

• The page sizes come from the image headers, so opening the archive decodes no image.

• A ComicInfo.xml at the root gives the title, the writers, the language, the reading direction and the page bookmarks to the common document API. CbzDocument.comicMetadata also gives the series, the issue number, the summary, and every other field and page attribute that the file declares. The metadata loads when you first ask for it. A damaged or missing ComicInfo.xml does not stop the comic from opening.

• Packaging files, such as Thumbs.db and hidden files, are skipped.

The module depends only on kitepdf-core. Add it with kitepdf, or on its own.
