I love the Book Designer program. It is great.

But I have a few basic problems that I just dont get.

First, I like to convert many of my books to either RTF or TXT.
Crazy? Well, UBook reader will take care of all the formatting for me. I do not need an elaborately formatted book for just pleasure reading.
Even with me using an older copy of UBook from before it was a pay program, it works great.

Now, on my computer, I have the full Adobe Acrobat. Handling PDFs is not really a problem. I have a great version of ConvertLit with GUI that works great for LIT books.

But I want a program that will handle everything.

Due to uninstalling MS Office 2007 (full version) I no longer have office on my computer and have to find the CDs for 2003. I mostly use open office anyway.

When trying to save books as RTF ot TXT, it comes up with "Check your MS Word" installation. If BookDesigner is free, why does it use "pay only" programs such as MSWORD and Adobe. I know you can use the PDF printer of OpenOffice to make PDF files, but why not OpenOffice to make TXT or RTF files, or even HTML files?

Is it just me or is there a workaround? I also can only use the FILE - SAVE AS to do TXT and RTF. When I go to MAKE EBOOKS - CONVENTIONAL: DOC, RTF, HTML, TXT, nothing happens. This is probably just a setting problem, but what?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
