Yes, I'm a graduate student of classical philology

I make my own pdfs or epubs of greek text cutting and pasting from the TLG (Thesaurus linguae graecae) database, which I use with Diogenes, which is freeware. (It is linked to the Little and Scott lexicon, so if you click on a word it parses it and gives you the full definition as well, it is really handy).

As for texts for people beginning to learn Greek, I don't know what is out there. I will check it out and send you a PM, though.

Check out these websites, where you can get free and legal ebooks/texts that might be of use to you:
