Another option is to use rss2book to format the HTML version for the reader as either RTF or PDF. Install rss2book (available from the sticky rss2book thread in the Content subforum), then click on File-Subscribe and subscribe to the "Project Gutenberg Sample" feed.

Then go to the book you want on the Gutenberg site; find the link for the uncompressed HTML version, and copy and paste that in as the URL for the rss2book Gutenberg feed. Click Go! and the book will be fetched, converted, and optionally synched to your reader.
