There were a couple of files that were not able to transfer. The error given was that the filename was too long. (This is using Win 8.1) Those files being missing didn't affect the functioning of the book, at least not as far as I could tell. Hyphenation still works, and the enhanced spacing at larger font sizes works too. I can't judge the kerning and other stuff, as I really can't see that.

That is EXCELLENT news -- it means initial fears that all books were being DRMed were jumping to conclusions.

Reposting this to another KFX thread.
