Hey, BobVA

I definitely like your idea for HTML files - five minutes and you've got a classic all set to read!

Formatting for the screen size is due to my choice of PDF as the final format - I was under the impression that you can't make bookmarks in a RTF file. Since I like to jump to favorite chapters/parts of books (I mean, really, isn't "The Inferno" so much more fun to read after Circle 5?), I thought that bookmark support was pretty important, hence the PDF. You could probably set the bookmarks automatically in a .doc file but I didn't know how to do that. On the other hand, it would be much better to save the final document in a few different formats (RTF, DOC, ODT, PDF and BBeB whenever Sony releases the specs) - that way, there can be something for everyone!

Right now, I'm trying to look around for a way to input a dialog box so that the user can input the Author and Title before saving and then use that info to automatically create the file name - any ideas?
