The diff file won't be of any use without the original PDF. So no, I am not giving out a direct readable copy of this book.

I find it interesting though that we are discussing piracy and such in the other topic and we are talking about format shifting here

Seems a little curious.. partially because the Infected LRX is for sale on Sony's store for $17.00.

Sunday I will take a stab at the conversion for Infected. If I can do a decent LRF version, then I can also do decent Mobipocket and IMP version as well. But, you'll need Python and the original PDF in order to get these versions as all I'll be posting are diffs and the Obelisk program.

It's also on sale at the fictionwise/ebookwise websites. I picked it up for my 1150 in addition to the hardcover that I purchased.

Thanks PBP, much better deal at fictionwise. More cost upfront (25$) but with the micropay rebate it comes out at $11.50.

But since it is only in .lit format, I am gonna have to convert it. Anyone want to sue me for making the file usable... go ahead.

I finally found some time to work on Infected. Once I am done with the first pass, I'll post a DIFF for LRF, PRC, and IMP. But I'll also require people who read it to pick up any formatting errors for me such as bad paragraph breaks. I think that will be all that may be wrong once I am done sometime this week.

What is taking some time is to format all the other worldly speak. And I am not sure how this will turn out in a PRC edition. But we'll see.

I am using Book Designer. And if anyone has any idea on how to change the font in the other worldly speak, so it looks different in a PRC, please let me know.
