In case it is useful to anyone, I am providing the pdf conversions steps for the dpt-s1 that I have settled on. I read landscape with two columns (approximating a hardcover book), but do not like the wasted space of built in toolbar in two page view, so create a two column pdf for view in single page mode without any toolbars. It is a lot of steps, but takes about 2 minutes once you get the hang of it.
1. Calibre – convert source file to rtf. Future steps are in word (converting to doc often doesn’t work properly which is why I convert to rtf). I actually convert to mobi and then from mobi to rtf which has made things 100% consistent, but I am not sure if this is necessary if I played around with my calibre rtf settings more.
2. Strip out the images by replacing all "^g" with "---" (optional but if you skip this you may need to resize some of the large images manually at the end).
3. Replace all the indented spaces with nothing and then use word ruler to indent how I like it - I do relatively small indents.
4. Make it all droid sans size 12 (works well for me - I tried the popular ebook fonts and like this one the best on dpt-s1, but this is personal).
5. Select all and give 1.2 multiple spacing and full justification.
6. Page layout orientation landscape.
7. Page layout margins top .16 bottom .02 sides .07 (don’t recall how I arrived at this - I think I just tried a few and liked how this looked so stuck with it).
8. Page layout Size 10.64 *7.98 (derived from pythagorean theorem with the aspect ratio and a 13.3 inch screen).
9. Page layout columns 2
10. Page layout column spacing .2
11. Insert page numbers bottom center - make the fields Page/NumPages and size it Calibri 10 (I wanted it a different text then the main and smaller). Delete the 2nd line so it is only 1 line.
12. Set header and footer from top and from bottom to 0.
13. There is usually an extra blank page at the end of the document which I delete.
14. Save as pdf.
