Hi all,

I just got my first e-reader and now I'm faced with a delicate problem. I would like to use it for reading technical documentations. They are done in MS-word and contain pictures, tables etc. I have tried Calibre, Sigil and seem to get a decent result, but, either it takes way to long time to convert (manually fixing all the styles in Word etc or the result is poor on my reader).

I saw some posts about eScape/Open Office but it doesn't support pictures.

Anyone who can give tips or hints on this problem?
