Some of the problems might be in the source file. What format is the book that you are trying to convert? Does it have DRM?
LRF is a non DRM version of the Sony BeBB format is what I'm reading, i.e. lrf is something different from Sony's proprietized version called BBeB.

I have a few hundred files from a torrent that show file type as .lrf

Program and/or Extension Function [What's This?] Company [What's This?]
BroadBand eBook
Specific Notes [What's This?]
LRS is the source format for Sony eBooks which are also known as BBeB (BroadBand eBook). The LRS format follows the Xylog XML format. LRS is compiled into LRF files in a proprietary way to produce the files used on the Sony Portable Reader. These files are compressed and may also contain the pagination data for the various font sizes used on the device.

Thanks for any help...
