Anyway, version 2 SAYS it decrypts successfully, but the output file isn't a valid PDF - OS X's Preview.app and Foxit both reject it. It's not all garbage though, looking through the raw data I can see the chapters in there, but the text is all garbage (encrypted I guess).

I tried running it through Nitro PDF... It crashed on opening the corrupt PDF. "Runtime error".

Any ideas? Help would be greatly appreciated. Kind of a waste of $25 if I can't read it!

DE 1.7.1.1085

Thanks in advance.
You can try the FBReader - newer versions can display ePubs very well. As for a conversion tool to pdf, I suppose there are a lot of tools to convert (not encrypted) epubs (which are basically some kind of xml format) to PDF.

You can additionally ask your question in the epub forum thread - they might be more informed about the exact circumstances ...
