Some of you might have followed my earlier posts about the LCP ePub DRM. Here's another one of Terence's blog posts that I thought was great.

Learned about two cool tools through this article and the comments posted there:

  1. https://www.autohotkey.com/ for automating tasks on OS level
  2. https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy for Android screen sharing/ recording and control

Using these together would be a very powerful toolkit for such purposes.

They're both awesome tools in general! I've got a custom ahk script in my autostart folder with tons of functionality like timed shutdowns, pinning windows on top, setting window transparency, filling in my email address when I type "@@" and some other stuff. You can check it out here.

And scrcpy is a great alternative to bringing a laptop if you have access to a PC but want to use your own device. At work, visiting family and so on. I posted my results mirroring a virtual second screen that I set up in the dev options here.

Great, then how do I properly turn the PDF into an epub, I tried many things but I never get anything good.
