I have tried exporting the book to the 505 via ADE and via Sony eBook Library. I can not open the book on the 505 after either operation.
I have also done a format transfer from .epub to .lrf of the Feedbooks.com "Ulysses" with Calibre and then transferred this file to the 505. This reads on the 505.
What is your recommended practice in such a case?
Many thanks,

There's actually two things that I'll do to fix this problem with the limit:
1) mark the files that have this problem and display a message in the editor: this way a human can divide the file where it won't be too much of a problem
2) detect those flows and auto-divide them as a fallback solution
We always divide the flows properly on Feedbooks and on most books, you'll never get this problem. Books like Ulysses are a real problem because there's no proper division in the text itself. I really don't like the fact that you have to
modify the display of these books and
add page breaks where there should be none but I'd rather make sure that the page breaks are not added in the middle of a dialog for example. I'll work on this once I've finished the proper footnotes support, in the meantime you can convert these files or use our custom PDF version.
