Text seems to be the "forgotten" format around here :-) Is anybody using it as their main file format on the Reader?
I really prefer the sans serif font to the serif font on the Reader screen though, and a larger default size. If there was some not-too-painful way to change the default font for text files, then I could use txt files and still get most of the benefit of rtf.
The other thing I like about rtf is being able to specify the metadata, but I figure I can write something to update the cache.xml file for txt files with sensible author/title info parsed from the filename.

Have you by any chance tried
Pielrf? It's used to convert text files into LRF files. And you might find editing your text for use with
Pielrf to be easier then using Word. I suggest you try that and see how it goes. There are also two other options.
Libprs500 that includes
html2lrf for converting html files to LRF and
Book Designer. One of those three solutions should work well for editing your text files so they are much easier to read on the Reader.
