  Thanks for all that explanation. I don't know much about
eBooks and had never thought of the idea of doing something
like that as a business.

   With the PDFs: I don't know if it's of any help, but mupdf
is what Sumatra uses. It's an OSS reader. I don't know anything
about the API for that, but if you're comfortable with a bit of C++
you can download the sort-of free C++ Express 2010 and build/edit
the project yourself.

  I found some here:

http://diskbooks.org/zobord.html

It seems to be some sort of Born-Again Christian site. I just
found it by seraching Google. The downloads for Windows
are SFX ZIP files with RTF and LIT versions inside.
