This is my first post, apologies if I've missed anything. There are other versions of Les Misérables around, but afaik this is the only version that includes italics, accents etc. It's not illustrated: I have an illustrated copy but haven't yet worked out how to create a list of illustrations in Word that works when I export to html.

This version was created in .docx from the PG version. After proofing, I saved it as .doc and converted it to .prc using Mobipocket Creator. The result doesn't display perfectly on my Kindle 3, but it is easily readable, and the TOC works.

Enjoy!
