As many know, Michael Rubin has made available for free, for an undetermined time, his $35 Droidmaker book on Lucas, Lucasfilm and Droidmaker.

My entry on this is at http://bit.ly/kdroidmkr

Rubin added a comment there to say he'd like to make these "appropriately available" in Kindle format, but he's on a Mac and hasn't figured out how he should do it. I responded that I'd ask around.

It's a set of 3 PDFs and these include double photographs on a row sometimes, as well as a lot of footnotes, which are in smaller fonts and on the left and right sides of the text body, which from my own experience would not come out well using MobiPocket Creator.

Any ideas? You could respond where he asks about this or go to his site.

Thanks for any help you can give him. That's a very impressive freebie.
