Any idea if PDF is the only format with this restriction ? Does the Mobipocket format display better on smaller screens ? Unfortunately my local library has many more PDF books than Mobi.
How about converting from PDF to Mobi ? Does that help with the screen formatting issue ? If so, so you know which tool does the best job of converting PDFs into Mobi ?
I see that
Mobipocket Creator can convert from PDF. Since it appears to be free, I will give this a shot with a couple PDF books I have and see how that works.
How do I verify how it will look on a small screen though ? When using MobiReader, can I restrict the screen size on the PC to "emulate" a 6 inch screen ?

I am in the midst of shifting to Bebook/Openinkpot (a freeware reading firmware consortium) as my primary liseuse. All the software has implemetation problems/limits, so it is a matter of which set of limits you'er the most comfortable with.

Yes, this is sadly becoming more and more evident to me
Hence trying to find a hardware/software solution that will pose the least issues with my needs.
I know OpenInkPot doesn't support DRM formats right now; do you know if there are plans to do that in the future ?
