Liker dmacmart, I have not had much of a problem with library ADE epubs but something like 50/50 with ADE PDFs. I specifically avoid the library books that are PDF only unless I really need to get it - I often just do the Advanced Search for all books that are available and epub format only - then scroll through the results to pick a book that looks interesting. I do not think this is specifically limited to the Kobo. The PDFs are fine to read on the laptop but do not scale nicely for the small Kobo screen. It is possible to convert the PDFs to ePubs but it means stripping the DRM.
