So I copied my books across to my new Pocket Pro and found RTF to be a bit limited on the PP 2x views none of which I liked and got a few lockups too, So I read a bit more on "The best format" thread and settled on PDB mainly because Open Office supports PDB and I can keep using the no side boarder template on it, And it has multi zoom levels on PDB. I did change the font also to a custom one after reading up on here about the best fonts to use, Which I then chose (Bookman Old Style) font very nice and easy to read.
The only thing that I don't like is the fact that I have to keep my SD card plugged in to keep using the custom font, As the PP reverts back to default fonts if I remove the SD card.
If you like rtf you might want to give pure DOC files a try. Make the fonts bigger to have about 22 lines per page for good results with a DOC file. Cut the margins down in the word file. Images work and even TOC works with DOC files using the built-in word TOC builder.
