OK, so I tried to get the gist of this post in the title and keep it short as well!
Yesterday I downloaded several Russian books in fb2 format, and converted them to lrf using the old fb2lrf program. (It always worked before.) I came up with 2 problems:
1) The converted books would not display properly on the new Sony Library software (v3). I vaguely remember dropping a folder with some fonts into a Sony Connect folder way back when, but could not find this info here after some searching. Can anyone tell me how to get the new Library software to display Russian books properly? (fonts are not embedded afaik--just converted from fb2 to lrf.)
2) More importantly, when loading the books onto my old 500 Reader, it turns out that
every second page is missing. I doubt the source fb2 files are messed up. So, is the conversion bad, or is there something wrong with the Sony Library software when loading the converted files onto the 500? (This has worked fine in the past, but I haven't done it in a while, definitely not since upgrading the Sony software to Library 3.0.)
I believe I'm using the fb2lrf version 0.0.16.something. Is there a newer/better version to use? I like this simple program for its basic drag-and-drop interface, works even with folders containing fb2 files. And it always worked fine before.
Any help would be great. (gf is now out of town with a bunch of half/un-readable books on the 500, but I'd like to fix this ASAP.)
