The device will sometimes freeze--sometimes I can get it to go to other books, but won't be able to change pages in the bible. I'm assuming this is due to the size of the file, but I'm not sure.
I've tried downloading it again, and re-copying it over to my reader. It will work again if I don't change the font from small, but problems begin again if I try to increase the size.
(My husband also has the same version of the bible on his 700 and doesn't have any problems with changing the font size.)
I'm just mentioning this because it might be something else you should look out for when testing your new bible on your 505.
BTW, I'm anxious to see your finished product! Thanks for your hard work!

Yes,resizing the text does take a lot of the reader's CPU.
The Sony reader PRS-505 is able to handle the bible just fine.
I'd recommend you to charge the battery of the reader via an AC adaptor.
Then go to the first page of the bible, and increase text size.
With the AC plugged in, I'm more confident that the battery won't run dry; and also the CPU gets enough voltage. It'll work a bit faster.
It could take upto 15 minutes on a large version for the first time.
Just let it load, and once it finishes, (normally) the book will automatically be opened the next time in the larger font size.
Changing fontsize and indexing could sometimes request a reboot of the Sony, to clear memory successfully.
