So, I was wanting to get the Gutindex.all text file from Gutenberg on to my ka1 because I enjoy looking through the books Gutenberg has in order to find some totally random stuff to read.

I started by saving the file as a .txt and sending it to the Kobo via Calibre. Calibre showed the file as on device, so I ejected, and then couldn't find the file anywhere. I plugged the device back in and mounted it, and now Calibre no longer shows the book as on device. Weird...

So, I thought that maybe the ka1 doesn't like the .txt file. I converted it to a .epub and sent it along. Exact same response. I tried uploading the .txt file to my email and downloading it using the Kobo browser. No dice there, either.

Is it too big? I mean, I could split it into different books if that would help? Or is there something else that I'm missing? The book seems to open fine in calibre's viewer, so I don't think there's anything wrong with it?

I tried googling and couldn't find a solution, so sorry if I missed a previous post about this!
