Single Volume conversion

ruby Mokuro2Pdf.rb -i "image path" -o "ocr path"

"ruby Mokuro2Pdf.rb -i "[ばらスィー] 苺ましまろ第01巻" -n "苺ましまろ第01巻" -f 0.1 -g 0.5 -u"

will generate a 苺ましまろ第01巻 - MKR2PDF.pdf pdf file

Multiple Volumes conversion

Create a parent folder containing all the volumes you want to convert, one for the images and another for the jsons

ruby Mokuro2Pdf.rb -p "parent folder path" -q "parent json path"

"ruby Mokuro2Pdf.rb -p "C:/Users/Ghabriel/Desktop/Manga" -q "C:/Users/Ghabriel/Documents/ Mokuro2Pdf/_ocr" -g 1 -w "C:/Users/Ghabriel/Desktop/Manga/PDF" -u"

will generate a [foldername] - MKR2PDF.pdf pdf file for each folder inside -p

Kindle usage

Use -g 0.8 for better contrast, -u for better image quality

You can mine from the pdfs using Memo2Anki
