Hello,

I just ordered the new PRS-300, so I don't have an e-reader in my possession yet, which might make these silly questions. Perhaps the answer is obvious once you start to play with the e-reader itself... but, what is the best way to view a scanned book (2 book pages per 'image')?

I've played around with cropping tools, which seem useful, and converted .pdfs to .lrfs, which gave me a very strange format, but perhaps it looks better on an actual e-reader?

Are there any particular programs/formatting tools/formats I should play with before I receive my e-reader? Any 'this is how I do it' comments would be great as well.

Thanks for any input!
