The only format that is really bad is pdf, PDF is difficult in general even from a good pdf source, but when dealing with files like this, lots of information gets lost in the translation to pdf and back.
thanks - I'd discovered by experiment that PDFs are difficult.

just one final observation - I wondered how you deduced that my example had gone LIt - pdf & back again. I'd guessed that the LIT converter had been used to go from lit to epub...

but when I actulally follow that spam link, I see that lit converter does not do epub, so now I see how you reached your conclusion.

thus my new rule of thumb will be IF encounter amber lit spam THEN look for better source :-)
