Converting books to eReader with Dropbook
I've posted a guide over at TeleRead on converting books to eReader using the OpenOffice to PML macro and Dropbook, with the help of emacs to do some search-and-replacing afterward.

I imagine there may be some easier methods than some of the things I do, but I don't know them. So if anybody has any useful scripts or other knowledge that could replace some of my steps, I'd like to hear them.

Why not make it into a wiki page for this site? It would be perfect in the HowTo category.
