I have used the ABC Amber Sony Converter to good results. It will provide the text in your choice of formats. Graphics are not converted and the attributes of the type are not preserved (i.e.: italic, bold.) These are easily added to the resultant file. I generally use BookDesigner for creating LRF books and like calibre you can set the base font size to anything you want.

I first started to convert some of the MobileRead download books when Dr Dribb posted a few I wanted to read but his base font was far too small for me to read easily -- even at the "L" setting on my Reader. Almost any of the tool combinations will work. The key is increasing the base font size in the new file.
