Hello!

I want to use the 505 to keep tech notes, information etc in "mini books".
It is such a wonderful device, I am determined to use it to the fullest!
I am currently experimenting with screen captures saved as .png files.
This seems to be fine except a bear to edit.
Question/s.
Is there a simple editor that would work for a beginner?
My goal is to have everything in a BBeB format because
I read somewhere that less power was used reading them.
Thank you!!!!
New update....
Perhaps this will help other new Sony 505 owners.
I did want to edit this however and provide some use for the post....
I have spent 5 days on google, wilki, and this forum. I have not found
any easy WYSIWYG type editor for BBeB (LRF). I am sure someone
is working on one ...somewere. The Russian program is the closest to
what would work for me. I will keep reading and looking.
This reminds me of the early days trying to use Edlin as a word processor.

Here are a few links I found helpful...
