So if I take a book from Project Gutenberg and convert it to WOL format and put it on my reader, would it be encrypted to work only with my specific reader? If so, then the only way to give a copy to someone else would be to give them my source file?

From what someone else said, the WOL conversion program stripped graphics (I think) and all the attributes such as italics and bold. Is this true? Does te conversion program actually do this to the source you give it? if this is also true, are WOL book you purchase be devoid of graphics and attributes?
