How to Read Command Dynamics Stories on a reMarkable
To read a Command Dynamics story from sheppardweir.com on a reMarkable, download it as an EPUB or PDF with WP Downloader and transfer the file to your tablet. WP Downloader is a free web tool, so there is nothing to install.
Download the story
Open the story on sheppardweir.com. Its URL should look like this:
https://sheppardweir.com/fanfics/viewstory.php?sid=1234 Copy the full URL from your browser’s address bar. It needs to point to the story rather than the site’s home page or another page.
Open the Command Dynamics downloader, paste the URL into the box, and start the download. WP Downloader detects the site and saves the whole story as a book.
For Command Dynamics, you cannot download a single chapter or a list of stories.
Choose EPUB or PDF
Both available formats work on reMarkable tablets:
- EPUB is free for everyone.
- PDF requires a free Discord sign-in.
You can choose whether to include the story’s images. EPUB is a good choice for most reading, while PDF is available if you prefer that format.
WP Downloader does not create MOBI, AZW3, or TXT files. A reMarkable accepts EPUB and PDF files up to 100 MB, so you do not need to convert the download.
Save the completed file to your phone or computer. If the author publishes more chapters later, download the story again. WP Downloader cannot add new chapters to an existing EPUB.

Transfer the file to your reMarkable
You can import the EPUB or PDF through the reMarkable desktop or mobile app, from a web browser, or over a USB cable. Use the method that suits the device where you saved the file.
Use the desktop or mobile app
Open the reMarkable app on your computer or phone, then use its file import option to add the downloaded EPUB or PDF. You can then open the document on your reMarkable tablet.
The mobile app is handy if you downloaded the story to your phone.
Upload it from a web browser
You can also use reMarkable’s browser file transfer. Open it on the computer that holds the download, select the EPUB or PDF, and upload it to your reMarkable.
Transfer it over USB
Connect your reMarkable to your computer with a USB cable. Turn on the USB web interface in the tablet’s storage settings, then open this address in a browser on the connected computer:
10.11.99.1 Use the interface to upload the EPUB or PDF. The exact path to the USB web interface setting can vary between reMarkable software versions.
Read the story
Once the transfer is complete, find the imported file on your reMarkable and open it like any other EPUB or PDF.
You can also follow the guides for sending Sheppard/Weir stories to Kindle or reading Sheppard/Weir stories on Kobo.
Members-only stories
You do not need to sign in for public stories. If your Command Dynamics account can read a members-only story, signing in lets WP Downloader fetch it.
WP Downloader uses your account credentials only to retrieve the story you requested. It downloads only content that your account can already read and does not bypass paywalls, locked chapters, or age restrictions.
Support for Command Dynamics and the other fiction archives was ported from FanFicFare, the Apache-2.0 open-source fanfiction downloader.
