Any tips?

Oh, and yeah I found the freebies ok..
personally i am all for the epub format. it's an open standard format and much more future-proof than lrf. egregious line-breaks are probably due to hard carriage returns in the source file and can be edited out, if you want. an epub file is just html inside a zip wrapper. take a look around the workshop and epub forums for some useful tips on how to do that.
