I think that Adobe Secure Reader 7 format is just an earlier version of Adobe Digital Editions which is compatible with UK PRS-505 units (or earlier US units with a July firmware update).

I have also downloaded a number of Adobe Reader 7 books from Fictionwise and they open in Adobe DE and then I can copy them to my UK PSR 505. I then use the Sony eReader software to add them to my collections.

The only problem with them (and to me it's minor) is that I have to change the zoom level when reading these books as the default is too small and, when doing this the formatting goes out (each page in the book is a page and a half on the reader so every other page stops half way down the screen).

Does anyone know if it is possible to reflow the text?
