Convert CBR for the Kobo Aura

CBR is a RAR archive of comic page images. The Kobo Aura has a 758 × 1024 screen, and CBR files that were not built for it read badly: pages rescaled on the fly, spreads split wrong, contrast off. MangaConverter re-renders every page for the Kobo Aura's exact resolution, so nothing is resized on the device.

How to convert CBR files for the Kobo Aura

  1. Drop your CBR

    Drag the file onto the dropzone. Several volumes can queue at once, and the other supported inputs (CBZ, CBR, ZIP, RAR, 7Z, PDF, EPUB) can mix in the same session.

  2. Your device is preselected

    The Kobo Aura profile (758 × 1024) is already picked. Switch device or apply a preset (Manga, Comic, Webtoon and more) if you like.

  3. Check the preview

    The studio previews every page on a simulated Kobo Aura screen before you convert, so you see exactly what the device will show.

  4. Convert and transfer

    Download the converted file and put it on your Kobo Aura. Copy it over USB into the Kobo's storage, or sideload it with a tool like Calibre.

Built for the Kobo Aura

Every page is rendered at 758 × 1024, so the Kobo Aura never has to rescale, and the preview shows the true fit before you convert.

CBR in, e-reader file out

Because CBR is a RAR archive of comic page images, the pipeline reads the pages directly; no extra tooling or unpacking on your side.

Frequently asked questions

What resolution does the converted file target on the Kobo Aura?

758 × 1024, the Kobo Aura's real screen resolution, the same profile table the KCC converter itself runs on. Pages are resized once, correctly, instead of being downscaled by the device.

What is a CBR file?

CBR is a RAR archive of comic page images. The converter unpacks it, processes every page for e-ink, and repacks the result in a format the Kobo Aura reads natively.

Which output format should I pick for the Kobo Aura?

EPUB or KEPUB. KEPUB unlocks the faster native Kobo comic reader.

Which input files can I upload?

CBZ, CBR, ZIP, RAR, 7Z, PDF and EPUB. Several files can be queued and converted in one session.

Under the hood this is Kindle Comic Converter (KCC), the open-source tool the community has trusted for years, running in the cloud, so you skip the install and get the same output.
