Which format for my books on the PRS?

Argh! This is easy! Pull your file into word, use <chtl>-a to select all the document. Change the font size to 18 point. Set it to BOLDFACE. Now, save it as an .rtf file.

You'll love it. You'll have a choice of small, sharp, wide-stroke text, a good mid-size and a large size that can be read in very dim light.

This keeps the file's images and italics. When first using each font size on the 505 (small, medium, large), there's a long pause while it calculates the formatting of the entire file. From then on, that size is fast.

It's very hard to beat 18 point bold rtf.

Thanks for all the response, I certainly have a lot of options now.

When I do this, it seems to create a lot of lines with just a couple words. Is there a way to fix this?

Otherwise it would be the best format I've tried.

I tried that, but found I still liked the default rtf style better. Most Rtf's look fine to me loaded up raw and zoomed up twice (which only makes it around 16 point font).
