Hiya guys,

I have a lot of ebook with pdf format. Wonder is it possible to convert them to lit so that my em-500 or em-505f can be read? How can it be done?

Thanks guys.

Cheers,
Jpixi

i just did this....rather time consuming, but possible.

if you have word 2000 or 2002, and have reader 2.0, you can.

go to http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/release.asp?ReleaseID=32668&area=search&ordinal=1 and download the patch, so you can create lit ebooks.

then, the only way i could figure out how to get text from pdf to word was by doing ctrl + a (select all), which selected all the text on that pdf page. then, you copy it and paste it into word. do the great amounts of formatting that you will probably have to do, then click on the little reader button in word that just got installed. then, you can convert it to an e-book.

keep in mind that this is a fair amount of work, just for the benefit of using ms reader. you may want to consider just downloading acrobat reader for ppc (free at http://download.com.com/3000-2153-8224519.html?tag=list but i don't know if your casio is an ARM), and living with the mediocre text quality.
