thanks!
PDF's are funny... If they have metadata it will show as that... if it doesnt then it may just show up as booktitle.pdf of if it was word doc converted it may show up as worddocname.doc.
quite annoying


Yes, any side loaded book will have a progress bar both on the home screen and as you read it
