I understand, and I'll see about generating a pdf.
However, although the e-readers can read pdf's, they do so very badly, because
pdf's are designed for 8*11.5 paper, and will not reflow the text for the

Apparently Amazon believe that with a Windows product and a Mac OS X
product they have 100% of the universe covered. Sadly the "Linux on
Desktop" community has no sway. Using Wine is supposed to work, but I
can't be bothered with it.
I suspect I must be in a community of 1 :-)
There's gotta be an e-reader for Linux. .mobi files are a standard as far as I
