Talking Graphic Converter (OSX) for PDF/Image conversion

The author of graphicconverter has added the ability to split multipage PDFs into multiple image files.

So, on OSX, use PDFlabs to combine/split/reorder pdf pages, and then you can run them through graphicconverter to make them images that fit the .77 aspect ratio of the e-reader.

This is *really* nice for reading newspapers/multicolumn stuff and is close to being a Rastafarian/JAP solution for OSX.

Still doesn't take care of DRM'ed pdfs.

Oh, and with the new version of Biblioskop, you can actually load your PRS500 without windows. Biblioskop doesn't read the memory card if you have it *in* the prs-500, but if you stick it in a memory card reader, it works fine.

OSX is slowly coming along with a few solutions......
