If the book doesn't have a "Save Sample" option then you have to take your chances, I guess.

Thanks, I'll give this a shot.

You could also use the old site to check the file format. IE9 should display the old version.

remember that you'll need to use the old address "www.kobobooks.com" and you can't be signed in (well, you can if your address is set to certain countries, but the "biggies" like the US, Canada, UK, etc. will send you to the new page if you're signed in).
