Yeah, sorry about that. I haven't put much energy into the linux menu options in some time. It is a poor man's gui, and not a very good one.

As for converting archive.org books, do you have a particular example in mind that you could post the link to? Archive.org typically displays slowly on e-inks because of the compression used (JPX/JPEG 2000). K2pdfopt can certainly be used to convert to "flate" compession (z-lib), which displays faster, but will result in a larger file size.
