Hello
Hi there. I am the new boy. Elderly man about town who has just begun getting to grips with as Sony PRS 300. Unsuccessfully I'm sorry to say. Fell at the first fence.
I have some books from E-bay but following instructions, I can't load them. They are xxxx.lit format. Is that Ok? If not, I have Calibre which can change the type.
Any help and/or assistance much appreciated.

Good to have your company, Docusk. If I may make a suggestion, try posting about your specific problem in one of the dedicated sub-forums (possibly Sony or Calibre) here for quick and expert advice. Meanwhile, luck and very best wishes. Neil

Hi, docusk, and welcome to the forums!

Looking from the Sony page, I don't see .lit listed as one of supported media formats. Here's the list:
  • DRM Text : ePub (Adobe DRM protected), PDF (Adobe DRM protected), BBeB Book (PRS DRM protected), Text, RTF
  • Image : JPEG, PNG, GIF, BMP

Looks like you'll have to convert them to .epub. I suggest loading them all into Calibre, CRTL+A to select all and just convert them all with one click.


Hope you will be enjoying your Reader soon!
