I am trying to transfer my books in RTF format to PRS-505 directly from Windows Explorer, by dragging and dropping.
When I drop the file it says that Document Summary Info might be lost if I proceed, so I have to say OK and as a result the title and author are not correctly displayed: the Reader takes the author info from User Information in Microsoft Word and title from the first line of text within the file. The Reader completely disregards the file name.
So where should I have the title and author info so the Reader gets it right? Of course, I don’t want to change User Information in Microsoft Word for every book I dump to the Reader. Nor would I like to install a program (like Sony Ebook) just to dump files to the Reader.
Is this possible or am I asking too much?
