ABC Amber LIT converter is not good. It's based on rather buggy code. The best program to use to convert MS Reader format to HTML is Calibre's lit2oeb.

BBeBinder is not the best solution to go HTML to RTF. Best to use MS Word or Open Office.

As for PDF, there are converters, but none do a perfect job and the only way to make sure the conversion is good is to compare the PDF to the converted copy and fix and problems you see.

If you are converting to RTF to use on your Reader, you'll find sometimes the reading experience won't be as good as it could be. You won't have a table of contents nor any graphics. If you have DRM free MS Reader files, use lit2lrf to convert them. That will do a rather good job of converting and you will get a ToC and any graphics.
