Yep. the site owner found a recent backup (which wasn't obviously labeled as one) and is restoring other content that went walkabout. Should be back to normal soon, if not already.

How do you do this?

ABC LIT Converter is buggy and does a poor job converting whent he LIT has italics. Also it will not work with DRM laden LIT.

ConvertLIT will be a much better job of converting to HTML or just removing the DRM.

Funny, it must be depending on the ebooks. I did a couple of dozen books with ABC and never ran into a problem.

Many .lit books I've seen are PDFs that are run through pdftohtml and then converted to .lit without any editing. So when you convert them back to html, it's still the awful output that pdftohtml created.

WOW! This is a very full site!! I'll have to stop and read a few books, and then go back there. Thanks for mentioning it enough for me to go back, now that they've fixed their problems. Wow!
