(First post - hi)
I played with LaTeX and dvipdfm a while back and came up with some really nice settings.
Here's what I used for the last book I reformatted:
Quote:
\documentclass[10pt]{book}
\usepackage{avant}
\usepackage[paperwidth=90.6mm, paperheight=122.4mm, margin=2mm]{geometry}
\special{pdf: pagesize width 90.6truemm height 122.4truemm}
\renewcommand\familydefault{\sfdefault}
\setlength{\parskip}{1ex plus0.5ex minus0.2ex}
\begin{document}
\title{Coming up for air}
\author{George Orwell}
\date{}
\maketitle
\part{}
\chapter{}
\fontsize{9}{11}
\selectfont
The idea really came to me the day I got my new false teeth.

I messed with the font quite a lot before coming up with these settings! Despite producing a PDF at the end instead of one of the more "accepted" formats, I find this very readable.
