How to Upload Images Onto Ti Inspire Cx
Until now, your TI-Nspire could not read documents files other than those created by the TI-Nspire software.
Information technology was not possible to put on your calculator Md/DOCX (Microsft Word), ODT (OpenOffice Write) or PDF files (Adobe Acrobat).
You couldn't either catechumen those documents to the TI-Nspire document format every bit it does manage very limited formatting options.
A solution was the conversion of these documents into BMP, JPEG or PNG images.
Unfortunately, the TI-Nspire organization provides a very limited image reader without any zoom or scrolling support, thus limiting the images to a maximum size of 318x212 pixels inadapted to US letter documents. 
A solution came with the mViewer image reader for owners of TI-Nspire still able to install Ndless.
A drawback of this solution notwithstanding, was to have a different image for each folio, and therefore constantly have to shut and reopen images for a document with several pages.
Alas, Texas Instruments decided for dorsum to school 2013 to permanently cake any possibility of installing Ndless on new TI-Nspire CX hardware revision 'J', thus creating an unfair inequality amid buyers in regards to their future exams where some of them volition even so be able to build a real world of documents on their TI-Nspire while the others cypher, causing discontent among those last purchasers who can consider having been deceived after being forbidden features granted to their predecessors and which were often one of their purchase criteria.
Today, nosotros're not going to reduce this inequality, quite the opposite... in the next few lines, some of you may explode with joy while the others may be completely disgusted...
Considering tonight is a peachy twenty-four hours in the history of the TI- Nspire ... 
Legimet was able to port the MuPDF library and has but released the outset third-party document reader for TI-Nspire CX and TI- Nspire CM ! 
Named nPDF, information technology supports PDF, XPS and CBZ documents.
Note that so far it does not work on classic TI-Nspire. But anyhow, the program is already 8MB large and wouldn't let you with many space left for those documents on such calculators.
Compered to the previous mViewer solution, advantages of this new player should be:
I was initially quite skeptical on the PDF support, as it is not a free format and did undergo many changes in years. All the same, I've tested several complex documents with many images and tables in add-on to the text and have been amazed by an absolutely perfect display !
For instance, here beneath, reading the viith of the 125 pages of the Getting started Started with the TI-Nspire ™ CX / TI-Nspire CX CAS Handheld .
Even if the nPDF reader is an boggling technical performance, it suffers (at least for now) from many drawbacks and limitations:
- no possibility to zoom
- no horizontal scrolling (all the pages are automatically scaled to the width of the screen, 320 pixels)
- no button to skip to the previous/side by side page (you've got to curlicue to the bottom/top of a page in order to move to the side by side/previous) :(
- no continuous scrolling (pressing upwards/down arrows just produces a uncomplicated piffling upwards/downward scroll, you lot then have to release the key and repress it, and over again and again...) :(
Small things, whose many would be certainly easy and quick to fix with very gew C code lines, it'southward the affair of a simple weekend, just which for now are going to litterally ruin your user experience, unless you're happy with the video below... :(
Note that nPDF did crash here on the last page change. I think I could spot the problem. We notice indeed that when we're reaching the bottom of a page, the reader tin sometimes cross the bottom page which displays some noise lines on the bottom of the screen. This happens with documents whose page acme is non a multiple of the vertical scrolling step. At this bespeak, the reader reads random information outside of the memory allocated for ??the page data, which actually causes such crashes easily.
Briefly, in its current version 0.1, nPDF will exist the correct matter :
- to documents with very few pages (because of the crash risk on page changes)
- to multi-page documents requiring no or very little vertical scrolling (US letter landscape format for example - because of the not-continuous vertical scrolling)
- to ane paged documents for those requiring vertical scrolling (because of the absence of keys to move to the next/previous page)
- and to documents with text large plenty to exist readable fifty-fifty one time resized to 320 pixels wide (because of the automatic resizing to 320 pixels wide without whatsoever zoom possibility)
In my stance, nPDF is not nonetheless an cease-user acceptable alternative to mViewer for reading documents on the TI-Nspire , but it's perfectly able to surpass information technology and to get the main TI-Nspire document reader before your 2014 exams, unfortunately only for some of you , I know, if the author has fourth dimension to continue its development for the end-user now! ;D
And then do not hesitate to thank the writer, support him or encourage him, and even making your own comments or suggestions. ;)
