Hi guys.

I usually buy MS reader books at Fictionwise, use ConvertLit, then Calibre into lit. Yesterday I noticed one of my books had typos in lit file. All "fi" combinations were gone. They were in the lit file, they are in epub file, but not in lrt. "first" becomes "rst", "field" is "eld", etc. Also, pictures were not in the lit file but were in epub. I was surprised to see how often these two letters happen together.

This is not a big problem, just wanted to share with you.

David
