NeoReader best settings for manga

Discussion

I've noticed that manga on NeoReader looks blurry and grayish even with high quality scans.

Here's my recommendations:

Image Sharpening - 6~10

Dark color enhancement - 10~20

Watermark Bleaching - 8~16

It seems NeoReader does a lot of post-processing on the images which can ruin high quality scans and also degrade low quality ones. There's anti-aliasing that makes the fine detail disappear and also a tone normalizer that ruins the picture quality (bright tones become darker and vice-versa). These settings really help make it look more natural.

Either way I'd recommend people to use a dedicated manga app but if you really want NeoReader then these settings will help you :)
