About

Comicpress takes DRM-free comic book files (CBR, CBZ, PDF) and compresses them to a fraction of their original size while improving how they look on e-ink ereaders. It applies image-processing operations such as contrast stretching, high-quality scaling, quantization, and dithering, all of which can be customized or disabled.

Who publishes this

Something concrete is wrong: the id claims a namespace this repository does not own, or the build does things a build should not. Flatsonar warns twice.
