A Favor To Convert eBooks
I offered a long time co-moblogger requested me to convert her 10 doc ebook files, 1 in prc format and 1 pdf ebook file to repligo format last week. I admit, the files were in my email inbox for a week and haven’t checked the details until last night. Its not that I don’t want to grant her request, but I can’t find time to convert them sooner. I guess, she forgot that she’s asking for a favor and I have a busy life outside mobile ebooks and blogging. Anyway, she didn’t have any access to computer that’s why she asked me I offered her. She kept texting me leaving ym messages the whole week if I’m done converting the ebooks until I find time last night. Listed below are the ebooks I’ve converted.
- Almost Heaven by Judith McNaught
- Sec Op 2 Perfect by Judith McNaught
- All That Glitters by Linda Howard
- Angel Creek by Linda Howard
- Cover Of Night by Linda Howard
- Heartbreaker by Linda Howard
- Pants On Fire by Meg Cabot
- Perfect Princess, A Princess Diaries Book by Meg Cabot
- Queen Of Babble 02, In The Big City by Meg Cabot
- In Her Shoes by Jennifer Weiner
- Just Curious by Jude Deveraux
Quite a long list and she’ll be reading them on the coming lenten season. Too bad that I didn’t prefer her book genre. The ebook in prc format is a mobipocket format that’s why she can’t open it using eBook 1.03 mobile application. She complained about it and asked me to checked it out. I advised her to use mobipocket reader instead on her N70.
I’m still thinking if I could offer here a free ebook conversion. Although, I don’t want to spoonfeed you on mobile ebook conversion, it will be on a case to case basis only. I will post the details depends on the comments here.

I seldom edit my entries and this is just one of them. I didn’t edit the above post except adding the strike code to correct the words I used. Some misunderstanding happened when “co-moblogger” got upset about this post. Now, I want to clear these things:
- She said that I offered her to convert the files. Yes, I did offer her after she texted me what “application” should be used for repligo conversion. Let me clear that the word application is totally different to software. There’s no application to convert files to repligo using symbian phone. Since I knew that she didn’t have access to PC, I offered to convert them for her. But I told her that I was busy since my yaya was about to leave that month. She forgot that?
- Regarding text, I cannot find the right word for ym message so I used the word text instead. I’ve already added that to the above entry. She texted me once or twice then the rest are ym messages.
- I’m not “earning points” for this post, if it was there should be lots of comments here on this post. I don’t think this is a spectacular article. Comments are moderated, the system is totally different from gblogs. How can I approve comments claiming to be different persons with different emails but have the same IP address?
Stressing the correction I made above, I never mentioned any name here. I don’t intend to embarrass or humiliate people. If that’s my intention, I should have post the name and link it. I did commit mistake and I sincerely apologize for that. You could have ask me to edit this or delete this post if you are supposedly a friend but cursed me, condemned me, threatened me with this post is the so-called “respect” she was talking about. I don’t think I deserve all the bad words you’ve told me, hitting me below the belt is not normal for me to hear.
The insult involving my personal life is NONE of your business, you never knew anything, all are purely speculations. As far as I know, its only you and I knew about the files. I don’t have to know you, you earned it already with your reputation. Its sad that everything has to end this way. And felt sorry for myself for knowing you.
04/23/08:I’ll be adding more details if I have to. You want me to approve your comments so that people will know who you are? Dare me and I’ll do that plus link you and submit this post to all submission article that I know, so that many comments coming from REAL people will be here. I’m not screaming mad with the above post, for your information, you’ve just misinterpreted everything.

I just bought a Kindle reader that reads .prc files. I also have the Mobi reader/converter. My goal is to buy my schoolbooks for nursing in electronic format. Most are sold I think, in HTML format. I know how to mass convert the HTML to .prc format already and have experimented with converting all the Word modules first to HTML, then to .prc format.
My question is this: How do you convert a book in HTML format keeping the index intact and bookmarks or pointers to all the chapters (the seperate html files)? I would like to keep the book as close to its original format as possible.
Thanks,

John, I’m still not familiar with Kindle reader, never got the chance to try it as of this time. But in mobile ebooks, I will convert it to java ebook. In java ebook format, bookmark is possible.
