Convert to LRF

ewilson13 · 11-30-2009, 12:49 PM

I posted this in another forum but I thought I should also post this here since everyone here has PRS 505's and have probably already conquered this problem

I have a Sony PRS 505. I usually convert to PDF and THEN convert my files to LRF in Calibre. I'm not very savvy with the formats and this worked for me in the past. I recently had a book in html form that I could not convert to PDF first. So I converted from html to lrf. Unless I buy directly from the Sony store I'm used to my books being one large paragraph. This time the book had separate paragraphs. A happy mistake!
My question is what is the best format to use to convert to LRF?
I know html now successfully converts to lrf. What about .lit? Or.doc?

I apologize if this question has been posted before.

Basdically any format is good. RTF, HTML or LIT.
I use Book Designer for this purpose.

If you convert something to PDF and convert PDF to LRF you loose a lot of formatting. think about it.
