Hello from the UK
Hi everyone, just pre-ordered my first eReader, a Kobo Glo, from WH Smith and had made my decision to buy one after a friend showed me his Kobo Touch and a Google search for more info led me to this site. Looking forward to my new gadget, and learning all about epub's!

Can anyone suggest a good newbie guide to using Calibre to create nicely formatted epub's from pdf's? I have a big library of purchased pdf's that I'd like to convert.

Cheers,
Bees

Thanks everyone. I'll start digging into the forums for newbie guides and other info when I get some time on the weekend.
