cb's JNovel Formatter

cb's JNovel Formatter is a utility that will convert Japanese novels to nicely formatted HTML files.

Download JNovel Formatter via SourceForge (source code is available as well)

You will need Windows (XP/Vista/7/8/10) and .Net Framework v3.5 installed.



Features:
▲ Most novel encodings are supported (SHIFT-JIS, UTF-8, UTF-16, etc.).
The output HTML will be encoded in UTF-8.

▲ Supports Aozora formatting （青空文庫形式）, including:
- Ruby/furigana （ルビ・振り仮名）. Kana that are placed over kanji to indicate
pronunciation.
- Emphasis （傍点）. Marks or dots used to emphasize a word or passage.
- Images （挿絵）
- Underlining （傍線）
- Gaiji （外字）
- The following formatting constructs are not useful or not currently
supported and will be removed:
- Comments （コメント）. Comments are found between the 2 dashed lines at
the start of the novel.
- Indentation （字下げ、地上げ、中央揃え）
- New page （改ページ）
- ［＃改丁］

▲ Option to add bookmark anchors to "。" characters. Just click a "。" character
and bookmark the page. When you load the bookmark, the page will return to
the sentence that you left off at.

▲ Option to break up the novel into smaller files that won't hose up your browser.

▲ Options to change the HTML style (font, colors, orientation, alignment, etc.).

Firefox users: Vertical orientation requires version 41+.

▲ Can process a single novel or an entire directory of novels.

▲ No installation required.

Have Fun!
