Ok-I have a drm protected PDF ebook that I paid for and want to download to my Sony 505.
I used an imaging OCR program to convert the protected document to Word as an RTF I beleive.When I go to put it into libris500 or book designer they both choke.
I THINK the problem might be the formatting.All the sections of the text become highlighted in some sort of individual text blocks when I click on a particular word or paragraph in MSWord. The paragraphs sort of look like ole objects, but I can modify the lettering like normal test. I tried to use the command 'select all' but that does not seem to work either.
Any experience with this?
