Kovidgoyal,

Thanks for this tip - can you tell me the precise steps how I can use HTML2LRF with the timesriver page?

By the way - I've created PDF --> HTML using "PDFTOHTML" then used your HTML2LRF to get it into the reader - it's an excellent utility!

What I really want is an optimized national newspaper for my Sony Reader. The New York Times has a PDF 8-page version of their paper called "TimesDigest" and sells for $360/year. Converted with RasterFarian to half-page it actually is quite readable on the Reader. But I can't justify paying $1 an issue when the entire newspaper is available online (newsstand.com) for half that.

If Sony added magazines/newspapers to their Connect Store, they'd see way more sales and I'd be in line ot purchase subscriptions.
