Mobi format is not restricted in that way if done using jpeg images. But if gif images are used, then the restriction on image size is in place. LRF does not have this limit. I was looking at a book in mobi that I borrowed from the library and the images were a bit on the small side. The book is
The Gathering Strom by Winston Churchill. The images are ones that the size matters. They are maps, diagrams, tables, and annotated maps. This is book one in his account of World War II. If this books is available in MS Reader format, so if you were to buy it, that would be the format to get so you could do the conversion to LRF or mobi and be able to have large enough images. And if you convert the LIT to HTML and find you get BMp/GIF like you do with the Mobi version then you would have to convert them to jpeg so as to keep the size. With lit2lrf, you won't need to convert bmp/gif to jpeg in order to keep the image size.

My process when setup correctly going from lit to mobi format is a one step process. The context for this discussion is to help people choose and then to pretend that the conversion to get a mobipocket book that looks like the mobipocked books you can buy is a much harder process then when converting to Sony format is misleading.

How can LIT to Mobi be a one step process. Step one is removing the DRM. So there has to be at least a step two.
