special characters on prs 505
How do I get the 505 to display special characters like ć, č, š, ž etc. in rtf files? So far the only way I found is to convert the rtf to pdf, which is a hassle & I dont like the way a pdf is displayed. Is there a way to do it with Fiction Book Designer or some similar app?

Thanks guys.
Does anyone know if there are some settings in word that can be changed so I don't have to convert the files every time? I usually save my ebooks as doc or docx, and I dont mind opening them and saving as rtf, but then I need to run calibre and convert the rtf again... it can be a bit tiresome. Can it be done at all? |

This is what I recommend. See this very detailed guide: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=28447 See following video - 505 can display even Russian text http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PcRna0NtBZM Search this forum: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=141 Also, you do not need to do special conversion if you use OpenOffice.org Writer and export the document as pdf. |

You can format PDF for the Reader screen.
or Update the fonts on your Reader (see above post). I use Bookdesigner for conversion, in my opinion it is vastly better at it than Calibre. |
