No longer. Either there is a significant change in Jetbook (the original not the Jetbook lite) or there's a change in Calibre.
I can open and read them in Calibre. Then I transfer them to the Jetbook. When I go to open them the jetbook says "failed to open the file.

Anyone else have this challenge?

Dvj, I have the EXACT same problem.
I find my books from a number of diff sources (eg, feedbooks, guttenburg, 4shared, etc) and there seems to be no rhyme or reason, as they say, to what opens and what does not.
The majority of the pdf's that I've converted in Calibre (on the fly and not; in bulk and individual) seem to 'fail to open'.
While on the other, however, the drm's from b&n open as they should. ...except that I no longer have the credit card number used to purchase some of them; but others that I did purchase don't ask for the codes, and look beautiful!
---I am very glad (and of course sad) to hear that SOMEone else is experiencing the same frustration as I. I still love my JB though, and am looking forward to a resolution(?).
Some (EcTaco JB forum) have suggested re-downloading the pdf's with adobe reader.. Haven't tried it yet, but will let you know as soon as I do, or if anything else does the trick. If you wouldn't mind the same courtesy?
