Here is my my questions and also my 'wants' if that helps.
1/ What do you mean when you talk about Adobe, DRE, pdf bookmarks etc etc etc. Maybe someone here could set up a dictionary with all these and an explanation of what they all mean in simple terms?

For what it's worth, MobileRead has a "wiki" (think of it like an online, user-created and maintained encyclopedia). You can see the link to it right at the top of the page, next across from "Home" and "Forums"...there's
"Wiki" (<--link).
Although it might not contain everything (like I mention, "user-created" means I/you/we/others here create the content), it does, for example, contain both
"PDF" (<--link) and what I am guessing you meant as
"DRM" (<--link). You may find other items there you are looking for as well, such as
E-book formats (<--link).
This will hopefully help you with that whole "dictionary" thing. Remember, it is, like most every wiki, a "work in progress", but there's a hell of a lot of good work there by MR members (a little shout out to
DaleDe here, a rather significant contributor to the wiki
) that might help shed light on some of your questions, now and in future (but please don't think I'm suggesting that you not ask them on the forum).
Cheers,
Marc
