Try one of these: http://www.un00b.net/Browser/NintendoDS/applications/comicbookds.nds or http://www.mrbass.org/nintendoDS/homebrew/ComicBookDS.zip No idea (haven't used it) but it might do the trick. http://www.un00b.net/Browser/NintendoDS/applications/dsreader.nds or http://gbax.gp2x.de/entries/gbax2007/DSReader.zip Also haven't used it. HTH.
My guess would be you just throw the .nds files on the root of the card (although they may be able to go into directories) and fire them up from there through the games icon on the R4. Depending on the application (I haven't used them) they may need their target documents (what you are reading) to be also in the root, or they may allow you to browse folders for stuff to read. My best advice is to just throw the .nds files on your card, throw on a few test files (a .txt, a .pdf, an .rtf) and see if it will read them. Play around with it and figure it out. This site http://www.ndsthemes.com/forums/viewtopic.php?pid=8377 seems to suggest that ComicBookDS may need it's files to be is .cbds format, but I haven't used it so I don't know. They also seem to have a link to a conversion program. HTH
Saw this one too: http://forum.gbadev.org/viewtopic.php?t=12810 It only handles text files I think but lets you hold the DS verticaly like a book. May have to downlaod and look at this one.
