Hyperlinked puzzle PDFs for reMarkable and Kindle Scribe: what changes when the contents page is tappable

ARLing s. r. o. · 17 September 2026

The page is a screen, not a sheet of paper

The reMarkable 2 and the reMarkable Paper Pro both have 1404 x 1872 dots, which at 226 dots per inch gives 157.8 x 210.4 mm, and that is where the 157 x 210 mm page comes from. The Kindle Scribe with 1860 x 2480 dots and Boox readers of that size have the same 3:4 ratio, so the same page sits on those screens as well.

That single decision is what keeps the grid large: a page cut for A4 and shown on a 3:4 screen is letterboxed, and every millimetre of that band is taken off the puzzle.

What changes on the page when nobody prints it

Nothing is bound and nothing is trimmed, so the 8 mm margin is the same on all four sides and does not alternate between left and right pages. There is one puzzle per page even on a small grid, because you page through a reader whole screens at a time. The cell ceiling goes up from 22 mm to 30 mm, because you write into it with a stylus rather than a pencil. Solutions go four to a page instead of six, page numbers are dropped because the reader pages itself, and the lines get stronger contrast for a display with sixteen shades of grey.

The contents page and the two links on every page

The contents page lists every puzzle number as a link, grouped by level. From a puzzle page, Solution jumps to that puzzle's answer and Contents jumps back to the list; from a solution, one link goes back to its own puzzle.

These are ordinary links in HTML, and Chrome keeps them when it prints to PDF, as Link annotations with a destination inside the same file. The test of a 300 puzzle book counts 379 pages, one of them the Contents page, and 300 links back to the contents.

Three files, one puzzle set

An e-ink edition holds 300 puzzles in three levels, 100 easy, 100 medium and 100 hard, with the solutions at the back. The finished Voles E-ink edition has three PDFs of that same set: the e-ink file with 379 pages on a 157 x 210 mm page, an A4 file with 304 pages and a US Letter file with 304 pages, and the PDF check passed on all three.

In an e-ink edition the builder puts the links into the A4 and US Letter files as well, so tapping works in all three; older catalogue editions meant for print stay without links, so published files stay unchanged.

Every puzzle was built and solved by our own program and kept only when the solver found exactly one solution, and that solution is the one printed at the back.

Getting the file onto your reader

Download the PDF on a computer or phone and copy it to your reader the way you normally add a book: the reMarkable desktop or mobile app, Send to Kindle for the Scribe, or a USB cable and the device folder for Boox. Nothing is installed and no account of ours is needed.
