So I have been opening the HTML in Firefox, cutting and pasting it into Kompozer and them running a find/replace in Text Wrangler to remove extraneous line breaks. It's quite a lot of work, especially when I have more than one to do at once, and I lose all the images etc. It's mostly fiction so I don't care----much---but there are a few books where I just can't get a read-able version this way and have to read them on my iPod. If this adept DRM fix is as easy as you say, maybe buying those instead is better than eReader.
Directions here (https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...&postcount=121) -- use google.

Give me a PM if you need more help.

I'm not a fan of PDB, it's a terrible file format. Wallcraft's study proved it, but I do on occasion buy eReader because eReader.com/FW has had some good deals, or exclusive deals where eReader(PDB) was the only format they offered. My personal favorite format is MOBI it's by far the easiest to deal with and has the best reading software. Though ePUB/LIT are also pretty good. ePUB might be the easiest for you since the Adept tool has a GUI front end.
