Each type of file has a related reader and should only be read by that specific reader. The same is true for PDF files. Use Adobe Reader for them.
Simaru, based on my experience, that's insane. Have you had problems with file formats other than LRF on the PRS-505? I've found that it displays most of the formats listed well. (DOC was a lie ... but ... what product's box is entirely honest?)

The comments that the PRS-505 can not do something drive me nuts. This morning, I was pounding my keyboard so hard that my Diet Dr. Pepper spilled ... I was ticked because some moron said the PRS-505 "was not designed to play MP3s" After a sarcastic reply that Sony must have included the headphone jack by accident, I cleaned up my keyboard.
