I've gotten the python script to work (for some reason, it does not like my XP box but seems quite happy to work under linux) and converted Aroundtheworldin80days.prc from fictionwise. Having said that, I tried to use the python script to decompress to HTML that has been mentioned earlier in this thread and get the following error:
Code:
MobiHuff v0.02

Decompressing...
Error: invalid compression type
Furthermore, if I try ABC Palm Converter (heck, the file has a PRC extension, might as well try), I get gibberish as HTML output.
The end goal I'm trying to achieve here is to convert a DRM mobi file into plain HTML so that I can put it on my sony reader.
What's the missing step here folks?

ABC converters are not good. I've tried some to convert content into PDF and RTF and found that the files generated were just barely usable. For example, the RTF was awful and the only way to fix it was to load it into Word and resave it. PDF there's no hope for. Also, the LIT converter is buggy so that's out. Yes it converts, but it has bugs so the conversion is not all that wonderful. The LRF converter strips out all styles and graphics on conversion. When it first came out I messages the author and asked about that and was told soon and soon has now become never.
