Use the menu option "Make eBook| Sony Reader (lrf)" (Note NOT Sony Libre)

And what than ?
My opinion is unless you plan on publishing books it is best that you start with Calibre. Convert your DOC/RTF to HTML then import to Calibre. Then in Calibre you can convert them to LRF.
NOTE: If your RTF are simple, (no Tables or pictures) then you do not have to convert those documents leave them as RTF.

I think you have an older version of BookDesigner, here is the latest BookDesigner Download from the WIKI page

Also I recomend you check out WIKI BookDesigner Page if you plan on playing with BookDesigner. It a great place to start.

Which is a fine and easy way to avoid the bad parts of the Sony store that makes it a pain. You already know what you want, you go in, get it, pay and leave. Kinda like me when I get socks at the store.

The annoyances start when you're just, er, "e-window" shopping, something that all stores would like to encourage. Then the slowness, the odd linkage, the "ah geez, come on already!" factors slide into focus, making you wonder why you're even at that site.
