PRS-505 doesn't show pictures in a specific PDF-book
I have a book called "Vintage Games" in PDF that has a lot of small pictures imbedded with text. However, the pictures are not showing when I check the book in the reader. Pictures display perfectly on my computer, even after converting the book to EPUB and LRF formats, but not in the reader. I even tried opening the book from the reader just to check that nothing went wrong with the transfer and it works. I have full PDF magazines that display correctly, so this one book is a bit of a mystery to me. Any help will be appreciated.

Is the PDF OCR'd with text? Are the pics visible if you are not zoomed in?
You might need to convert the PDF to LRD with the winlrf2pdf utility. |

Nope, I only got them visible when I used landscape mode and tweaked the PDF a bit. I think it has to do with the images not being aligned with the text, but rather spread around the pages left and right. The layout is kinda hard to convert for a reader. I also noticed, that after converting to LRF the images show with inverted colors.

Hm... did you use the Calibre conversion or the pdf2lrf utility?

I used both Calibre and pdf2lrf. Now I actually took time to try it again with pdf2lrf and finally got a somewhat readable format after playing with the settings for a while, so thanks for that suggestion.
