Thanks for the reply. It is very helpful as I will now stop searching.

I tried the embedded lrf produced by libprs500 and it seemed that the page turn time was 2~3 times longer, which is hard to swallow.

On the other hand, the pdf with embedded font (the feedbook ones) seemed to be fine. I don't mind a larger size. The only issue is the lost of changeable font size. I think I'll live with it.

Thanks again... Oh btw, do you have any recommended font? I don't like the New Century Schoolbook font being used by feedbook. I am looking for something similar to Kindle's Caecilia font for its legibility on low dpi screen (166 is still smaller than 300 or 600, isn't it?). vista's Calibri looks great, but I still prefer a serif font.
