This search and replace operation of which you speak - do you do this in the pdf (opening it presumably with Adobe) before loading it into Calibre? (no option to do it within Calibre that I can see..
no, you must first convert the pdf to an editable format (html, doc, txt...). then you can do search and replace in whatever app you use for editing text (dreamweaver, word, open office, etc.).
..ah. Of course. Thanks for that. Turn the pdf into a doc, edit the doc, then convert presumably to an rtf, then load into the Reader.
..I'm beginning to miss paperbacks already..
