Hi. DeusExMe
Why do you wish to purchase "e-Book classics" from the Connect store?
You can download those books from numerous other legitimate sources and format them yourself to your taste.
Just give it a try.
Load a "classics" book from Project Guttenberg or other site into a word processor. (like MSWord, OpenOffice.org WordPerfect or whatever) Use one of macros featured on this site (
Example link) to remove hard line breaks inside paragraphs. I personally remove unwanted line breaks using Regular expresions in Vim text editor but that is far too complicated to explain here.
Now select all text and:
- set page margins to 0.01 - you want to use ALL of your new, beutifull electrophrenetic e-ink display to display the text
- set font to Arial (or Helvetica or any other sans serif font (because the Reader will use its built-in font anyway)),
- set size of font to 16,
- set format -> paragraph -> first line intent to your taste (for example 0.5 cm),
- set format -> paragraph -> "space after paragraph" to your taste (for example 6 points)
Please note that once you find your favourite formatting you can record a macro that will do all this with a single click of a button. This way you can save $1.99 on "Connect e-Book classics" just by clicking a button ;-)
Save the file in rtf format, load it into the reader and read several dozens of pages.
Open the file again in word processor and try to experiment with the fonts and layout so it exactly suits your taste. Tastes wary greatly. There are people that find books formated from Connect store tolerable, good enough, or even great ;-)
