I can't find this feature request so here it goes.
I have MANY PDF's eBooks. When I add (e)books to Bookpedia, would be nice to have the option to double click the cover and open the PDF to see the book. Nice to not only catalogue but to browse it too.
Best book cataloguer btw.

Bookpedia already does this for you. Just select the book you want to link a PDF to in Bookpedia, make sure the Info view is showing, drag the PDF from the Finder to the Info View and now it is linked to that entry. Just click on the link and you can read the PDF right inside Bookpedia.
Cheers

Thanks for your reply.
I still prefer an option to open in Preview. You have more options (like annotations) and it saves the page you were reading.

If you don't want the PDF to open in Bookpedia, go into your Preferences/Style and check the box next to 'Open links in external browser'. Clicking on the link now will open the PDF in whatever program you have specified in the Finder, i.e. Preview.
