Please Help Me!!!!
I have an ARC copy of a book that I would like to put on my kindle and read instead of having to sit in front of my computer for the next couple of days reading. I downloaded the python script ineptpdf and used it and it decrypted the book perfectly, but every singel time I try to convert it I run into the same problem. Once the conversion is done i pull up the file and there is a crapload of stuff in it such as the date and the the books name followed by .indd , Is there any way to strip this book so I can keep the same layout and keep the book looking the same way but actually convert it? I have already tried everything I know to do to it like printing it with a program that prints it to another pdf file, I have tried to convert it to another file format then convert it back to pdf to convert in calibre (for some reason my copy of calibre is very select about which doc and rtf files it converts) I have tried to turn it into an html using third party pdf converting software, I have tried converting the original file back to pdf and editing it and that doesnt work, I even asked for the file to be sent throught my free.kindle email address and it converts it the same way calibre does... I have tried many other things too but nothing will work. Someone please help me before I lose my freaking mind.... This is bull@#%$!!!!!
