If you download books from Manybooks, what I do is download in HTML and then run the text through Book Designer since their machine generated LRF is not very nice to read. Margins way too big, line spaces after every paragraph, and no ToC. So I make my own version which is a lot nicer.
From PG, I download in HTML if possible and format it using either html2lrf or Book Designer. if I cannot get HTML from PG, then I download the text and use Word to clean it up and then use BD to make the LRF.
if you find a decently formatted LIT file (without DRM), you can always use lit2lrf to convert fairly easily.
