I have come across some .lrf files that I would like to read. LRF is the format used by the Sony Librie e-book reader. I don't have one of those, so I would ideally like to convert these files into something sensible like PDF. Does anyone know of a good Linux utility to do this? I have done some searching (apt-cache, google, and freshmeat) but didn't find anything for Linux.
<br><br>I no longer have any dedicated Windows machines. If all else fails, I could presumably fire up kvm/qemu and use the real Sony software to *view* the files, but that's pretty gross. :-/<br><span class="sg"><br>
