Fortunately, you are in fact mistaken. At some point between ConvertLIT 1.5 and 1.8 the author changed the program from directly attempting to extract the DRM5 key from the current system to using a pre-extracted key file (e.g., "keys.txt"). The Windows binaries of ConvertLIT 1.8 include a "ReaderKeyRecoveryTool" for extracting your system's DRM5 key into the key file.

As for why ConvertLIT only converts to HTML, that's because LIT is just HTML in a funky archive (like a ZIP archive, but funky), so the simplest thing way to "convert" it is to just extract the HTML.

Why is it that you want the book in RTF?
