I do not know what a line feed, text editor or DRM is, nor do I know how to convert!
I've just wasted a good part of two days playing around with various "tools" to create an FB2 (FictionBook) file format eBook.
I'm no novice, but the task defeated me.
The tools were shit.
1) One converter from HTML to FB2 ignored photos and styled text weirdly.
2) An entire program devoted to creating FB2 eBooks was buggy as hell and the files I thought were perfect turned out all FAIL!
3) A desktop FB2 file reader couldn't display italic text (but it could display JPEGs -- go figure!).
All I wanted to do was see one -- just one! -- FB2 eBook, even if I had to create it myself!
And here, in the above thread, eBook geeks are trying to convince a member of the general reading public to develop some g33k ski77z in order to do some eBook reading.
That's just half-assed stupid.
That's like everyone having to be a frikkin financial expert (and I choose that example to rub your FAIL 401K in your face!).
Now just imagine the general public encountering that Zero-G Toilet of Adobe ePub DRM!
That's just another formula for FAIL!
