I got that batch of free cookbooks too. Several of them were labeled PagePerfect Nookbooks which in the past has meant pdf only (and, as you said, won't unlock with Alf's tools). I was pleasantly surprised to be able to get them as epubs by downloading them through Nook for PC. They all decrypted with no issues for me.

Incidentally, I've discovered that Nook for PC can read pdfs and even pdbs when sideloaded, but it won't download them.
