So i was looking for an "Edit" button but cant find on to remove that program name. What other program did it steal code from?

Not sure how to know if they are "Fixed layout eBooks" or not.

Its not a very efficient method, but i did consider opening each .xhtml page in chrome, then printing as PDF, then combing all the PDF pages together to create the ebook. Although that can be tedious when you have multiple books to do, and i would much prefer the epub format anyway.

I cant seem to open the DRM Free azw3 books on my ipad at all. I tried the kindle app, mobi reader app and ibooks. The Kindle app on the ipad/iphone says "Incompatible Document Type", yet the Kindle app on my PC will open it just fine.

After converting them to ePub, they sometimes play pretty good (not perfect) in Calibre on the PC, but absolutely terrible in SumatraPDF and Icecream ebook reader. Also terrible on iBooks.

Obviously the MOD made it clear i can't upload one for you too look at, but i dont know if i am allowed to post screenshots of how badly formatted they look after conversion.

Any advise on converting them to properly formatted epub files (or even pdf at this point) would be appreciated.
