Is there a better format to convert to than PDF? Simple ZIP-files should work on the Cybook and Iliad (I think), but not on the Reader. Is there an easy way to convert a bunch of images to LRF?

For Windows there seem to be better programs for this whole Manga2Ebook task, but unfortunatly not for Linux (don't know about the final image quality compared to this script though).

As I said, some feedback would be nice. Especially the 600x800 resolution for the Reader might not be optimal, because the device has a small bar at the bottom of the screen with the page number and stuff.
