Sorry to resurrect a very old thread. I have some lrx books on my old 505 which I want to move to my paperwhite (for the benefit of the frontlight). I managed to load one into Calibre, but can't do anything with it, not view it nor view the metadata.

I'm getting re-acquainted with Alf, but from reading through his blog it's unclear whether the tools deal with lrx.

Is it possible to read the lrx books on a kindle? Will Calibre convert this format?

Thanks.
